Current measured by the ammeter \((A)\) in the reported circuit when no current flows through \(10\,\Omega\) resistance. will be________\(A\)

  1. A \(10\)
  2. B \(9\)
  3. C \(11\)
  4. D \(8\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(10\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Using the condition of a balanced wheat stone bridge, \(\Rightarrow \frac{ R }{3}=\frac{4}{6} \Rightarrow R =2\,\Omega\) So the effective resistance of the circuit is \(R _{\text {eq }}=\frac{6 \times 9}{6+9}=\frac{18}{5}\,\Omega\) \(i=\frac{36}{R_{e q}}=10\,A\)
