Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 2 A

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The given circuit is equivalent to given below, Now, \(\frac{1 \Omega}{2 \Omega}=\frac{2 \Omega}{4 \Omega}\) i.e., \(\frac{P}{Q}=\frac{R}{S}\) The given circuit is a balanced Wheatstone bridge. The resistance of \(5 \Omega\) in arm \(B D\) is ineffective. \(\therefore\) Now…
