Five conductors are meeting a point x as shown in the figures . What is the value of current in fifth conductor ?

A

3 A aways from x

B

1 A away from x

C

4 A away from x

D

1A towards x

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`5 + 4-3-5 - I_(x) = 0`
incoming current `to +ve`
`rArr I_(x) = 1A` outgoing current `to -ve`
