$6 V$ $R_{eq} = \frac{R \times 3 R}{R + 3 R} = \frac{3}{4} R \Rightarrow R_{eq} = \frac{3}{4} \times 2 = \frac{3}{2} Ω$

$∴$ Current through battery $= \frac{6 \times 2}{3} = 4 A$

The current through $a - h, i_{a h} = \frac{4}{8} \times 2 = 1 A$

$∴$ $∆ V$ across $e - f = \frac{i_{a h}}{2} \times R = \frac{1}{2} \times 2 = 1 V$

Q. Twelve wires each having resistance 2Ω are joined to form a cube. A battery of 6V emf is joined across points a and c. The voltage difference between e and f is ____ V. [2024]

Ans. (1) ∴ Req=R×3RR+3R=34R⇒Req=34×2=32Ω ∴ Current through battery =6×23=4A The current through a-h,iah=48×2=1A ∴ ∆V across e-f=iah2×R=12×2=1V
