Current Electricity Ques 12
12. In the circuit shown, if a conducting wire is connected between points $A$ and $B$, the current in this wire will
[2006]
(a) flow in the direction which will be decided by the value of $V$
(b) be zero
(c) flow from $B$ to $A$
(d) flow from $A$ to $B$
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 12.(c)
Solution:
- (c) Current will flow from $B$ to $A$
Potential drop over the resistance $C A$ will be more due to higher value of resistance. So potential at A will be less as compared with at B. Hence, current will flow from $B$ to $A$.
