In the circuit shown below the current flowing from the battery is

A

0.5A

B

1A

C

2A

D

2.25A

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The given network is a balanced Wheatstone's bridge. Thus, effective resistance of network is,
`R=(4xx4)/(4+4)=(16)/(8)=2 Omega`
Thus, `I=(E)/(R)=2/2 = 1 A`
