Question
What is the current in the circuit shown (Fig. )
Advertisements
Solution
Given, potential difference, V = 2 volt
Let R be the equivalent resistance of the circuit and I be the current flowing through it; then
R = `[(1/2 + 1/2)^-1+ (1)]`
R = [1 + 1] = 2 Ω
`therefore "I" = "V"/"R" = 2/2` = 1 A
