In the circuit shows in Fig. `6.41`, the reading of the ammeter is (assume internal resistance of the battery be to zero)

A

`(40)/(29)A`

B

`(10)/(9) A`

C

`(5)/(3) A`

D

`2 A`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Voltage across `5 Omega` is `10 V`. Therefore,
`I = (10)/(5) A = 2A`
