If I’m applying for I-485, how should I fill the box in the part about the current city/country where my father lives since I’m not sure where he currently is?
My parents are separated and I have no contact with my dad. I don’t know
where he currently lives. What should I put in the box for section 78 in part 4
of the form? Also, can this affect my application or delay it?

How old are you and on what basis are you applying for adjustment of status. If it is not on the basis of your father petitioning for you and you are an adult, you can simply indicate unknown for your father's whereabouts, as it will not be relevant for your process.
