  3. C 1.5 V
  4. D 2.5 V
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 2.25 V

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(I = \frac{E_2 - E_1}{R + r_1 + r_2}\) \(I = \frac{4 \text{ V} - 2 \text{ V}}{3 \text{ } \Omega + 0.5 \text{ } \Omega + 0.5 \text{ } \Omega} = \frac{2 \text{ V}}{4 \text{ } \Omega} = 0.5 \text{ A}\) Since current enters the positive terminal of the 2 V cell, it is being…
