Detailed Solution

From the circuit, the reading of the ammeter and voltmeter in the circuit is

0.5 A

and the

1 V

respectively.
It is given that the four resistors of resistances

2 Ω, 3 Ω, 3 Ω

and

4 Ω

connected to a supply of

6 V

. Also, the voltmeter and ammeter are connected to the circuit.
Since, the resistors are connected in circuit, the equivalent resistance of the circuit is equal to sum of the individual resistances. Hence, the equivalent resistance of the circuit is

R_{S} = R_{1} + R_{2} + R_{3} + R_{4}

{\Rightarrow R}_{S} = 2 + 3 + 3 + 4

{\Rightarrow R}_{S} = 12 Ω

Now, from the Ohm’s law, the current flowing through the circuit is

I = \frac{V}{R}

\Rightarrow I = \frac{6}{12}

\Rightarrow I = 0.5 A

From the Ohm’s law, the voltage across the resistor

2 Ω

is equal to,

V = IR

\Rightarrow V = 0.5 \times 2

\Rightarrow V = 1 V

Hence, The ammeter reading of the circuit is

0.5 A

and voltmeter reading is

1 V
