Resistances of $$1$$, $$2$$ and $$3$$ ohm are connected in the form of a triangle. If a $$1.5$$ volt cell of negligible internal resistance is connected across the $$3$$ ohm resistor, the current flowing through this resistance will be

Question

Infinity Learn · Accepted Answer

Here $$1$$ and $$2$$ ohm resistances are connected in series Their equivalent resistance is $$3$$ ohm. The total resistance would be a parallel combination of $$3$$Ω and $$3$$Ωresistance. This is equal $$toR=R1R2R1+R2=3$$×$$33+3=96=1$$⋅$$5$$ΩCurrent flowing through $$3$$ Ω $$resistance=1$$⋅$$5V/1$$⋅$$5$$Ω$$=1$$⋅$$0amp$$

Resistances of 1, 2 and 3 ohm are connected in the form of a triangle. If a 1.5 volt cell of negligible internal resistance is connected across the 3 ohm resistor, the current flowing through this resistance will be
