Q.

In the following circuit, the magnitude of current I1, is _______ A.              [2023]


Ans.

(1.5)

Junction law at A,

       x-(y+5)1+x-22+x-02=0                      ...(i)

Junction law at B,

       y+5-x1+y-01+y-21=0                        ...(ii)

On solving equation (i) and equation (ii),

         x=3 and y=0

At D junction, I1=i1+i2

      I1=y-01+x-02=0-01+3-02

I1=1.5 A
