Current Electricity Charging Discharging Of Capacitors Question 244

Question: In the circuit shown $ P\ne R $ , the reading of the galvanometer is same with switch S open or closed. Then

[IIT-JEE (Screening) 1999]

Options:

A) $ I _{R}=I _{G} $

B) $ I _{P}=I _{G} $

C) $ I _{Q}=I _{G} $

D) $ I _{Q}=I _{R} $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

Reading of galvanometer remains same whether switch S is open or closed, hence no current will flow through the switch i.e. R and G will be in series and same current will flow through them. $ I _{R}=I _{G} $ .
