In the circuit shown in the figure , if a conducting wire is conneted between point A and B , thent the current in the wire AB will

A

Be from A to B

B

Be from B to A

C

Not flow

D

Direction of current will be decided by magnitude of source voltage

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Use voltage divider law

From the voltage divider law
`V_A = 2/3 xxV =(2V)/(3)`
`V_B = 2/6V = V/3`
Here `V_A gt V_B`
Hence, current in wire will flow from A to B
