In the circuit shown, if a conducting wire is connected between points A and B, the current in this wire will:-
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
Current will flow from higher to lower potential.
Before connecting wire from 
to 
, voltage drop
across 
Voltate drop across 
∴ voltage drop at 
and volatage drop at 
So, 
Hence, on connecting wire between points 
and 
, the current will flow from 
to 
.
