प्रश्न
In the circuit shown in the figure, find the total resistance of the circuit and the current in the arm AD.

उत्तर
Since the capacitor will act as an open circuit here, the arm CE and EF will become ineffective. The circuit is now reduced to as below

Effective resistance across AD = (BC + CD) ∥ AD
= \[\left( 3 + 3 \right) \lVert 3 = 2 \Omega\]
Total resistance of the circuit = AD + DF = 2 + 3 = 5 Ω
Total current in the circuit = \[\frac{15}{5} = 3 A\]
The current through AD and BCD will divide in the inverse ratio of the resistance.
∴ Current through AD = \[3 \times \frac{6}{\left( 6 + 3 \right)} = 3 \times \frac{6}{9} = 2 A\]
