Question

In the circuit shown:

Moderate
Solution

The current in the circuit I =(2010)(7.5+0.5+1+1)

                                          =1010=1amp

The potential difference across PS,VPS=7.5×1

                                                               =7.5V

The potential difference across Q,R,VQR=1×1

                                                                  =1V

As point G is connected to earth, hence potentials of R and S are zero.

The direction of the current in the circuit is from P to S, hence point P is at higher potential.

 Vp=7.5V

 Similarly,  VQ=1V

Hence (b), (c) and (d) are correct.
