    The current i in the circuit of the adjoining fig is

    A) \[\frac{1}{5}\,\,amp\]                   

    B) \[\frac{1}{10}\,\,amp\]

    C) \[\frac{1}{45}\,\,amp\]                 

    D) \[\frac{1}{15}\,\,amp\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Let \[R\] be the total resistance of the circuit then                 \[\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{30}+\frac{1}{30+30}=\frac{1}{30}+\frac{1}{60}=\frac{2+1}{60}\] or            \[\frac{1}{R}=\frac{3}{60}=\frac{1}{20}\] So,          \[R=20\Omega \] Now current\[=i=\frac{E}{R}=\frac{2}{20}=\frac{1}{10}\,\,amp\]
