Question:

In the given figure, the current through the 20 V battery is:

Options:

11 A

12 A

7 A

14 A

Correct Answer:

11 A

Explanation:

Potential difference across 4Ω resistance (20 + 16)V current through 4Ω resistance

= 36V = $\frac{36}{4}$ = 9A [From top to bottom]

Similarly, current through 2Ω resistance = $\frac{20-46}{2}$ = 2A
