Five equal resistances each of resistances R are connected as shown in the figure. A battery of V volts is connected between A and B. The current flowing in AFCEB will be


- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
A balanced Wheststone’s bridge exists between A & B.
Req = R
Current through circuit = V/R
Current through AFCEB = V/2R
