उत्तर

Apply Kirchhoff’s In loop ABCFA:-
I + I + 4I1 = 9 − 6
2I + 4I1 = 3 … (1)
As there is no current flowing through the 4Ω resistance,
I1 = 0
Or, 2I = 3
Or, I = 1.5A
Thus the current through resistances R is 1.5A.
As there is no current through branch CF, thus equivalent circuit will be,

By applying Kirchhoff’s loop law we get,
1.5 + 1.5 + R (1.5) = 9 − 3
R = 2Ω
Potential difference between A and D = (9 − 3) = 6V
