उत्तर
(a) Potential difference across XY = pot. cliff. across 6 Ω resistor
= 0.3 x 6=1.8V
b) Pot. difference across 9Ω resistor= pot. cliff. across 6 Ω resistor= 1.8 V
:. Current through 9Ω resistor = `1.8/9` = 0.2A
Current through 2.4Ω resistor = total current in the circuit = 0.3 + 0.2 = 0.5A
(c) p.d. across 2.4Ω resistor = 0.5 x 2.4 = 1.2 V
(d) emf of cell = p.d across 2.4Ω resistor+ pot cliff. across XY = 1.2 + 1.8 = 3.0 V
