JEE Advanced · Physics · 19. Current Electricity

The figure shows a circuit having eight resistances of 1 Ω each, labelled R1 to R8, and two ideal batteries with voltages ε1=12 V and ε2=6 V.

Which of the following statement(s) is(are) correct?

  1. A The magnitude of current flowing through R1 is 7.2 A.
  2. B The magnitude of current flowing through R2 is 1.2 A.
  3. C The magnitude of current flowing through R3 is 4.8 A.
  4. D The magnitude of current flowing through R5 is 2.4 A.
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) The magnitude of current flowing through R1 is 7.2 A.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Point A and B are at same potential so they can be merged/folded. Now, let x and y be the current flowing from 6 V and 12 V batteries.
