The current drawn from the battery in the give network is (Internal resistance of the battery is negligible)

Options

A2.4 A
B1.6 A
C2.0 A
D3.0 A

Correct answer

A. 2.4 A

Step-by-step solution

It is a balanced Wheatstone bridge. No current will flow through 5 resistance, and hence it can be removed from the circuit. 3 and 2 resistance are in series. Hence we have two branches with 5 resistances each, connected in parallel. Their equivalent resistance 2.5 I = V R = 6 2.5 =2.4 ~A
