Question:

All resistances shown in circuit are 2Ω each. The current in the resistance between D and E is

Options:

5 A

2.5 A

1 A

7.5 A

Correct Answer:

2.5 A

Explanation:

Due to balanced Wheatstone bridge, resistance between A and B can be removed.

The current between D and E, $I_{D E}=\frac{10 V}{R_{D E}+R_{H G}}=\frac{10}{2+2}$ = 2.5 A
