The current in 1 Ω resistor in the following circuit is (a) 1 A (b) 0.5 A (c) 1.1 A (d) 0.8 A

Answer: (a). 5/1 = 50/10, so the bridge is balanced and G carries no current. Upper path: 5 + 1 = 6 Ω; lower path: 50 + 10 = 60 Ω. I1Ω = 1.1 × 60/66 = 1 A So the answer is (a) 1 A.

The current in 1 $\Omega$ resistor in the following circuit is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

$\frac{5}{1} = \frac{50}{10}$ , so the bridge is balanced and G carries no current.
Upper path: $5 + 1 = 6\ \Omega$ ; lower path: $50 + 10 = 60\ \Omega$ .
$I_{1\Omega} = 1.1 \times \frac{60}{66} = 1$ A
So the answer is (a) 1 A.
