उत्तर
a.
Due to the zero resistance of FG in a parallel series combination of R4, the resultant resistance of this combination will also be almost zero, and the entire electric current will flow through the path.
Resultant resistance of parallel series combination of R1, R2
∴ `I_3 = V/(R_3 + R_S)`
`V_1 = V - I_3 R_3`
= `V - (R_3 V)/(R_3 + R_p)`
= `V (1 - R_3/(R_3 + R_p))`
= `V (R_p/(R_3 + R_p))`
∴ `I_1 = V_1/R_1 = V/R_1(R_p/(R_3 + R_p))`
similarly,
`I_2 = V/R_2(R_p/(R_3 + R_p))`
b.
Equivalent resistance of series combination of R1, R3, R4
`R_S = R_1 + R_3 + R_4`
Current in the circuit,
`I = V/(R_1 + R_3 + R_4)`
c.
`R_P = (R_1 R_2)/(R_1 + R_2)`
`R_S = R_3 + R_4 + (R_1 R_2)/(R_1 + R_2)`
`I = V/R_S = I_3 = I_4`
Also, `I = I_1 + I_2` and `R_1 I_1 = R_2 I_2`
∴ `I = I_1 + (I_1 R_1)/R_2`
∴ `I_1(1 + R_1/R_2)`
= `(I_1(R_1 + R_2))/R_2`
`I_1 = (R_2 I)/(R_1 + R_2)`
and `I_2 = (I_1 R_1)/R_2`
= `R_1/R_2((R_1 I)/(R_1 + R_2))`
= `(R_1 I)/(R_1 + R_2)`

Set up the circuit shown in Figure again. Move the key to ‘ON’ position and watch carefully in which direction the compass needle gets deflected. Switch ‘OFF’ the current. Now keeping rest of the circuit intact, reverse the connections at the terminal of the cell. Again switch ‘on’ the current. Note the direction in which the needle gets deflected. Think of an explanation.
