A battery of \(6\,V\) is connected to the circuit as shown below. The current I drawn from the battery is:

Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(1\,A\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Balanced wheat stone bridge in circuit so there is no current in \(5\,\Omega\) resistor so it can be removed from the circuit.
\(R _{eq }=\frac{6 \times 12}{6+12}+2\)
\(=\frac{6 \times 12}{18}+2\)
\(R _{e q }=6\,\Omega\)
\(I =\frac{ V }{ R _{a q }}=\frac{6}{6}=1\,Amp\)
