Potential difference between the points P and Q is nearly
Options
- A17 ~V
- B14 ~V
- C12 ~V
- D8 ~V
Correct answer
A. 17 ~V
Step-by-step solution
Let total current be denoted as I. The given circuit is a Wheatstone bridge. aligned & R₁=6+3=9 . & R₂=8+4=12 aligned According to KCL , the current will get divided into two parts I₁ and I₂ I ₁= R ₂ I ( R ₁+ R ₂ ) Substituting the values, aligned & I₁= 12 9+12 5 & I₁=2.85 ~A aligned Potential difference between P and Q is aligned & V=I₁ R & V=2.85 6 & V=17 V aligned
