Q91 / 180 · NEET 2025 · Physics
The current passing through the battery in the given circuit, is :
- A$2.0 \mathrm{~A}$
- Correct answerB$0.5 \mathrm{~A}$
- C$2.5 \mathrm{~A}$
- D$1.5 \mathrm{~A}$
Solution
$\text { Simplified Diagram: }$
$\mathrm{i}=\frac{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{R}_{\text {eq }}}=\frac{5}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{8}{3}+1.5+5.5}=\frac{5}{10}=0.5 \mathrm{~A}$
$\mathrm{i}=\frac{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{R}_{\text {eq }}}=\frac{5}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{8}{3}+1.5+5.5}=\frac{5}{10}=0.5 \mathrm{~A}$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
