five resistors are connected in a circuit as shown in fig find tge ammeter reading when tge circuit is closed.
Answers
Answer:
R 6= r1+r2
= 3+3
=6 ohm
- R effective = 0.5 ohm + 2 ohm +0.5 ohm
- R effective = 3 ohm
Ammeter Reading = I =v/r
=3/3
= 1 ampere

Answer:
2 A
Explanation:
First find the equivalent resistance .
starting from the top ,
consider part DCE , resistor DC and DE are in series so their equivalent resistance is 6 ohm .
now in place of those two resistors mentioned above consider one resistor of 6 ohm .
that resistor and the 3 ohm resistor are parallelly connected . cal. their equivalent resistance ( 1/6 + 1/3 ) and resiprocal of this will be the total resistance of the triangle above .
not the two 0.5 resistors and the equivalent resistance of above triangle are in series so add all the three you'll get the equivalent resistance .
now use V = IR
V= 3V
R = we havd calculated above ( 1.5 ohm )
find I ( current ) that will be the ammeter reading .
ammeter is a device which measures the current in the circuit .
