CBSE Class 10 Science 2019 · Paper 31/1/2/C · Question 14
In the given circuit, find :
- (a)Total resistance of the network of resistors
- (b)Current through ammeter A
- (c)Potential difference across and resistors
Answer
, A; the potential difference is V across each resistor and V across the resistor.
(a) Total resistance of the network (each branch is , and two branches in parallel give ).
(b) Current through the ammeter A.
(c) Each branch carries A, so the potential difference across each resistor is V, and across the resistor it is V.
