In the circuit diagram shown in figure given below, the current flowing through resistance 3 
is 
A. The value of x is________.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
(1)
Let the current flowing through the circuit be I A in anti-clockwise direction. The net resistance is R = 4.5 
+ 2 
+ 1.5 
= 8 
Hence 
The current flowing through the 3 
resistor is
So, x =1
