The figure below shows current in a part of electric circuit. The current `i` is

A

1.7 amp

B

3.7 amp

C

1.3 amp

D

1 amp

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

(a) According to Kirchhoff's first law
At junction `A`, `i_(AB) = 2 + 2 = 4 A`
At junction `B`, `i_(AB) = i_(BC) - 1 = 3 A`
At junction `C, i= i_(BC) - 1.3 = 3 - 1.3 = 1.7 amp`
