The terminals of a battery with 18 V is connected to a circular conducting loop of resistance 24 92 at two points A & C (as shown in fig). The current flowing through bigger part ABC is. 1) 0.5 A 2) 0.75 A 3) 1.0 A 4) 1.5 A ww

Correct option is A) Since the terminal is connected at one quarter distance . The ratios of length of two points is L 2
L 1
= π/2 3π/2
R=24Ω Since R∝L..so R 2
R 1
= L 1
L 1
=3 R 1 =18ΩandR 2 =6Ω Since the potential across R 1 and R 2 is same ,so they both are parallel. R c
1 = R 1
1 + R 2
1 ; R c =4.5Ω Now the internal Resistance is 1.5Ω R T =1.5+4.5=6Ω Cuurent, I= R T
V = 6 18 =3A Now the current in parallel resistance is distributed in inverse ratio of resistance . Curren through bigger arc R 1
