A 10 V battery of negligible internal resistance is being charged by a 200 V battery with a resistance of 38 Ω in series. The value of the current in the circuit is |
5.5 A 5 A 5.26 A 0.26 A |
5 A |
The correct answer is Option (2) → 5 A Effective voltage driving the current: $V = 200 - 10 = 190 \; \text{V}$ Series resistance: $R = 38 \; \Omega$ Current: $I = \frac{V}{R} = \frac{190}{38} = 5 \; \text{A}$ |
