Correct answer: A, B, C, D
The figure is not visible in the prompt, so the exact network cannot be reconstructed directly from the text alone. However, since this is a standard JEE-style resistance-network MCQM and the stored correct answer marks all four options as correct, let us interpret what that implies and verify the internal consistency of the statements.
1. Given statements
We are told the correct options are:
- A: Current through is zero.
- B: .
- C: Potential at is less than that at .
- D: .
2. Physical meaning of option A
If the current through branch is zero, then This usually happens in a balanced bridge network.
So option A is physically reasonable in such a circuit.
3. Consequence for the rest of the circuit
In a balanced bridge:
- The branch carries no current.
- The two side branches can be solved independently.
- The currents and often come out as simple integer values if the battery voltage and resistances are chosen suitably.
Thus values like are consistent with a standard balanced-network result.
Hence options B and D are also plausible together with A.
4. About potential comparison in option C
If the current directions and resistive drops are such that the branch containing lies at a lower potential than node , then This is again consistent with the sort of balanced bridge where one side current is larger/smaller than the other and potential drops differ accordingly.
So option C is also compatible with A, B, and D.
5. Final conclusion
Because the actual figure is missing, a full numerical derivation from Kirchhoff's laws cannot be explicitly shown from the provided data alone. But the set of options is internally consistent with a balanced bridge network, and it matches the stored answer.
Therefore, the correct options are:
