(A) 2R/3 (B) R/3 (C) R (D) 3R

Sol. (A)The circuit is equivalent to Fig. It is a balanced wheatstone bridge between abcd, and then in parallel (2R) resistances. Thus ignoring resistance between bd arm. The circuit is equivalent to three (2R) resistances in parallel
(abc, adc, aRRc).

Ex. 7 An electric current of 5 amp. is divided in three branches forming a parallel combination. The length of the wire in the three branches are in the ratio, 2, 3 and 4 ; their diameters are in the ratio 3, 4 and 5. Find the currents in each branch if the wire are of the same material.
Sol Let the length of three wires be 2l, 3l and 4l respectively and their radii be 3r, 4r and 5r respectively. If S be the specific resistance,then
