Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
Ans.
(i) [B]
(ii) [A]
(iii) [C]
(iv) [B]
Sol.
In parallel current distributes in inverse ratio of resistor. Hence, distribution of current in different resistors is as shown in figure.

For power generation apply P = i 2 R.
=
=
= 2.5 A
=
=
= 2.5 A
