The potential difference between \(A\) and \(B\) in the following figure is


  1. A \(32 \mathrm{~V}\)
  2. B \(48 \mathrm{~V}\)
  3. C \(24 \mathrm{~V}\)
  4. D \(14 \mathrm{~V}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(48 \mathrm{~V}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Applying Kirchhoff's voltage law, we get \[ \begin{array}{ll} -V_{A B}+6 \times 2+12+9 \times 2-4+5 \times 2=0 \\ \Rightarrow & -V_{A B}+48=0 \\ \Rightarrow & V_{A B}=48 \mathrm{~V} \end{array} \]
