उत्तर
In the given circuit, two 6 Ω and 4 Ω resistors are connected in parallel combination across a cell of 24 V. We know that in a parallel combination, the voltage across the resistor remains the same and only the current gets divided. So the current (I1) through the 6 Ω resistor is:
`I_1=V/R_1`
here R_1=6Ω
V=24V
so
`I_1=24/6`
`or I_1=4A
`The current (l_2) through the 4 resistors is :`
`I_2=V/R_2`
R_2=4Ω
`I=24/4`
`or I=6A`
