In the circuit shown in the figure, if potentail at point `A` is taken to be zero, the potential at point `B` is

A

`-2 V`

B

`+1 V`

C

`-1 V`

D

`+2 V`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`I_(CD) = 2-1 = 1A`
`V_(CD) = 2 xx 1 = 2 V`
`V_(A) = 0`
`V_(C ) = 1 V`
`V_(D) = 3 V`
`V_(D) - V_(B) = 2 rArr V_(B) = 3-2= 1V`
