Kirchhoff's Laws & Measuring Instruments question from MHT CET 2025 (23 Apr, Shift 1)

Answer: (b)

1. The two identical cells ($3$ V, $3\ \Omega$ each) are in parallel with like poles together.
2. Equivalent cell: $E = 3$ V, $r = \frac{3}{2} = 1.5\ \Omega$.
3. $I = \frac{E}{R + r} = \frac{3}{6 + 1.5} = \frac{3}{7.5}$
4. So the answer is (b) $\frac{2}{5}$ A.
