Question:

In the circuit shown in the figure:

Options:

The current through NP is 0.5 A

The value of R1 = 40Ω

The value of R = 14Ω

The potential difference across R = 49 V

Correct Answer:

The value of R1 = 40Ω

Explanation:

In parallel current distribution in inverse ratio of resistance.

R1 = 40Ω

Further VNP = 20 V  ⇒  VR = 69 - 20 = 49 V

            R = $\frac{49}{3.5}$ = 19Ω
