In a two-mesh circuit, the mesh equations are 10I1−4I2=2010I_1 - 4I_2 = 20 and −4I1+8I2=−8-4I_1 + 8I_2 = -8. After solving, a student correctly finds I1=2 AI_1 = 2 \text{ A} and I2=0 AI_2 = 0 \text{ A}. The student then claims: *"Since I2=0I_2 = 0, the right-hand loop carries no current, so the branch shared between the two meshes carries only I1I_1, and the right-hand loop is effectively an open circuit."* Which statement best assesses this claim?
