Question
In the circuit shown in figure.


Options
A.Power supplied by the battery is 200W
B.current flowing in the circuit is 5 A
C.potential difference across the 4Ω resistance is equal to the potential difference across the 6Ω resistance
D.current in wire AB is zero
Solution
4Ω and 6Ω resistor are short - circuited, Therefore no current will flow through these resistances. Current passing through the battery is I = (20/2) = 10A. This is also the current passing in wire AB from B to A.
Power supplied by the battery P = EI = (20) (10) = 200 W
Potential difference across the resistance = potential difference across the resistance
Power supplied by the battery P = EI = (20) (10) = 200 W
Potential difference across the resistance = potential difference across the resistance
