Kirchhoff's Laws & Measuring Instruments

The potential difference (VA−VB)(V_A - V_B) between the points ' AA ' and ' BB ' in the given part of the circuit is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. Walk from A to B along I=2 AI = 2\text{ A}: drop IRIR in each resistor, drop EE across the cell (+ to −).
  2. VA−2(2)−3−2(1)=VBV_A - 2(2) - 3 - 2(1) = V_B
  3. VA−VB=4+3+2=9 VV_A - V_B = 4 + 3 + 2 = 9\text{ V}
  4. So the answer is (d) 9 V.
