57. In the circuit shown in the figure, if potential at point $A$ is taken to be zero, the potential at point $B$ is
[2011M]

(a) $-1 V$
(b) $+2 V$
(c) $-2 V$
(d) $+1 V$
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 57.(d)
Solution:
- (d) Current from $D$ to $C=1 A$
$ \begin{aligned} & \therefore V_D-V_C=2 \times 1=2 V \\ & V_A=0 \quad \therefore V_C=1 V, \therefore V_D-V_C=2 \\ & \Rightarrow V_D-1=2 \quad \therefore V_D=3 V \\ & \therefore V_D-V_B=2 \quad \therefore 3-V_B=2 \therefore V_B=1 V \end{aligned} $
