The potential difference between points ...

The potential difference between points `A` and `B` adjoining figure is

A

`(2)/(3) V`

B

`(8)/(9) V`

C

`(4)/(3) V`

D

`2 V`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

(c ) The given circuit can be redrawn as follows
For identical resistances, potential difference distributes equally among all. Hence potential difference across each resistance is `(2)/(3) V`, and potential difference between `A` and `B` is `(4)/(3) V`.
