In the circuit shown below the power generated inA) 1Ω Resistance is maximumB) 3Ω resistance is maximumC) 1Ω Resistance is minimumD) 6Ω Resistance is minimum*Multi - Option correct MCQ |
|
Answer» Option (B) and (D) are correct. Equivalent Resistance = \(1+(\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{3})^{-1}\) = 1 + 2 = 3 ohms Equivalent current = V/R = 18/3 = 6 A Power in 1 ohm resistor = V²/R = 6² =36 W Power in 3 ohms resistor = 12²/3 = 48 W Power in 6 ohms resistor = 12²/6 = 24 W Therefore, power in the 6 ohms resistor is minimum and power in the 3 ohms resistor is maximum. |
