If power dissipated in the 9 
resistor in the circuit shown is 36 watt, the potential difference across the 2 
resistor is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Current flows through the 9 
resistor is
As the resistors 
and 
are connected in parallel, therefore potential difference across them is same.
Current drawn from the battery is
The potential difference across the 
resistor
