Five equal resistance each of resistance $R$ are connected as shown in the figure. A battery of $V$ volts is connected between $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{B}$. The current flowing in AFCEF will be:

• A

  $\frac{3 V}{R}$
• B

  $\frac{V}{R}$
• Correct answer
  C

  $\frac{V}{2 R}$
• D

  $\frac{2 V}{R}$

Solution

Given circuit can be reduced to

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
