In the circuit diagram shown in the figure given below, the current flowing through resistance 3 Ω is x3 A. The value of x is ________. [2023]
(1)
E=E2-E1=8-4=4 V
13+16=12=1R
⇒R=2Ω
The current supplied by battery E,
I=E1.5+4.5+2=48=0.5 A
Hence current in 3Ω resistance,
I1=(63+6)×0.5=13A
⇒I1=x3=13
∴ x=1
