The value of current I as shown in the given circuit diagram is

Options

  1. A2A2A
  2. B1.5A1. 5A
  3. C0.9A0. 9A
  4. D0.2A0. 2A

Correct answer

C. 0.9A0. 9A

Step-by-step solution

The given circuit can be redrawn as

The value of current I as shown in the given circuit diagram is

Since, RABRBC=RADRDC=12,\dfrac{RAB}{RBC} = \dfrac{RAD}{RDC} = \dfrac{1}{2}, hence, it is a balanced Wheatstone bridge, therefore current flowing in arm BD=0BD = 0

∴Req=(10+20)∥(6+12)=30∥18∴ {R}_{eq} = \left(10 + 20\right) ∥ \left(6 + 12\right) = 30 ∥ 18

=30×1830+18=11.25Ω= \dfrac{30 \times 18}{30 + 18} = 11. 25Ω

∴I=VReq=1011.25=0.89A=0.9A∴ I = \dfrac{V}{Req} = \dfrac{10}{11. 25} = 0. 89A = 0. 9A
