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

\(R _{\text {eq }}=\frac{6 \times 9}{6+9}=\frac{18}{5}\,\Omega\)

\(i=\frac{36}{R_{e q}}=10\,A\)
