MCQ
Potential difference between the points $P$ and $Q$ in the electric circuit shown is ................. $V$
  • A
    $4.5 $
  • B
    $1.2$
  • C
    $2.4$
  • $2.88$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$2.88$
d
(d) Equivalent resistance between $P$ and $Q$

$\frac{1}{{{R_{PQ}}}} = \frac{1}{{(6 + 2)}} + \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{{(4 + 12)}}$

$==>$ ${R_{PQ}} = \frac{{48}}{{25}}\,\Omega $

Current between $P$ and $Q$; $i = 1.5\,A$

So, potential difference between $P$ and $Q$

${V_{PQ}} = 1.5 \times \frac{{48}}{{25}} = 2.88\,V$.
