Resistors of 1, 2, 3 ohm are connected in the form of a triangle. If a 1.5 volt cell of negligible internal resistance is connected across 3 ohm resistor, the current flowing through this resistance will be

A

0.25 amp

B

0.5 amp

C

1.0 amp

D

1.5 amp

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`R_(eq) = (3 xx 3)/6 = 3/2 Omega`
`I = (1.5)/(3/2) = 1A`
`I_(3Omega) = 1/2 = 0.5A`
