In the given circuit, the current in resistance \(\mathrm{R}_3 \) is _______.

Pick an option to check your answer.
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A)  \(1 \mathrm{~A}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{eq}}=2 \Omega+2 \Omega+1 \Omega=5 \Omega\)
\(\mathrm{i}=\frac{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{eq}}}=\frac{10}{5}=2 \mathrm{~A}\)
Current in resistance \(\mathrm{R}_3=2 \times\left(\frac{4}{4+4}\right)\)
\( =2 \times \frac{4}{8} \)
\( =1 \mathrm{~A}\)
