Question

In the given circuit the current in 20 ohm resistance is 1.8A calculate the total current in the circuit

Answer 1

Answer:

Total current in ammeter is 0.8 A

Current through 20 ohm resistor is 0.3 A, hence the voltage across it is

V=0.3×20=6V

Current through 15 ohm resistor is

I=

R

=0.4A

Hence current through R1 is, I' = 0.8 - (0.3+0.4) = 0.1 A

Therefore,

R1=
