Three resistance are joined together to ...

Three resistance are joined together to form a letter Y, as shown in figure. If the potentials of the terminals `A, B` and `C` are `6V, 3V` and `2V` respectively, then the potential of the point O will be

A

`4V`

B

`3V`

C

`2.5V`

D

`0V`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Let `V_0=V`
Now, `I_(AO)+I_(BO)=I_(OC)`
`:. (6-V)/6+(3-V)/3=(V-2)/2`
solving this equation, we get
`V=3V`
