In the circuit shown below, the ammeter reading is zero. Then the value of the resistance \(R\) is

  1. A \(50 \Omega\)
  2. B \(100 \Omega\)
  3. C \(200 \Omega\)
  4. D \(400 \Omega\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(100 \Omega\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, circuit In loop (1) \(12-500 i_1-R i_1=0\) \(\Rightarrow \quad 12=i_1(500+R)\) ...(i) In loop (2) \(12-500 i_1-2=0 \Rightarrow 10=500 i_1\) or \(i_1=\frac{1}{50} A\) ...(ii) From Eqs. (i) and (ii)…
