In the following electrical network, the value of I is (a) 1 A (b) 2 A (c) 3 A (d) 4 A

Answer: (c). Kirchhoff's junction rule: total current in = total current out. Current in = 2 + 4 = 6 A Current out = 1 + 2 + I 6 = 3 + I ⇒ I = 3 A So the answer is (c) 3 A.

In the following electrical network, the value of I is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

Kirchhoff's junction rule: total current in = total current out.
Current in $= 2 + 4 = 6\text{ A}$
Current out $= 1 + 2 + I$
$6 = 3 + I \Rightarrow I = 3\text{ A}$
So the answer is (c) 3 A.
