In the given circuit, E1=E2=E3=2VE_1=E_2=E_3=2 \mathrm{ V} and R1=R2=4ΩR_1=R_2=4 \Omega, then current flowing through the branch ABA B is In the given circuit, E_1=E_2=E_3=2 V and R_1=R_2=4 , then current flowing through the branch A B is

Options

  1. Azero
  2. B2A2 A from AA and BB
  3. C2A2 A from BB to AA
  4. D5A5 A from BB to BB

Correct answer

B. 2A2 A from AA and BB

Step-by-step solution

The given circuit can be redrawn as, In the given circuit, E_1=E_2=E_3=2 V and R_1=R_2=4 , then current flowing through the branch A B is where, equivalent emf of the combination, Eeq =E1R1+E2R2R1+R2=2×4+2×44+4=2V\begin{aligned} E_{\text{eq }} & =\frac{E_1 R_1+E_2 R_2}{R_1+R_2} \\ & =\frac{2 \times 4+2 \times 4}{4+4}=2 \mathrm{ V} \end{aligned} and Req=R1R2R1+R2=4×44+4=168=2ΩR_{e q}=\frac{R_1 R_2}{R_1+R_2}=\frac{4 \times 4}{4+4}=\frac{16}{8}=2 \Omega Net emf of the circuit, E′=E2+Eeq=2+2=4V\begin{aligned} E^{\prime} & =E_2+E_{\mathrm{eq}} \\ & =2+2 \\ & =4 \mathrm{ V} \end{aligned}\thereforeCurrentflowingthroughbranchCurrent flowing through branchA B,,I=\frac{E^{\prime}}{R_{e q}}=\frac{4}{2}=2 \mathrm{ A}Clearlyfromfigure,itisclearthatdirectionofcurrentisfrompointClearly from figure, it is clear that direction of current is from pointAtotoB$ clockwise is loop.
