In the given circuit, currents through `4 Omega and 10 Omega` resistances are as shown. The current through the `5 Omega` resistance is _________ A.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let the current through the`5Omega` resistance be x in the direction shown. Then, by applying KCL we can assume the currents in the other branches as well. Now, starting from the positive terminal of the battery, applying KVL, going clockwise:
`-5x-1(10)-2(x+3)+30=0 implies x=2A`
