The power dissipated `6 Omega` resistor is

A

`27/8 W`

B

`9/16 W`

C

`6/16 W`

D

`3/16W`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`R_(rq) = (18xx6)/(18+6) + 2 + 8 + 0.5 = 4.5+10.5 = 15 Omega`
`I = (15)/(15) = 1A`
`i_(1) = (18)/(18+6)xxi = 3/4xx1=3/4 A`
`P= i_(1)^(2) xx 6 = 9/16 xx 6 = 27/8 W`.
