Question:

In the circuit shown, the potential difference between $\mathrm{A}$ and $B$ is:

  1. (1) $1 \mathrm{~V}$

  2. (2) $2 \mathrm{~V}$

  3. (3) $3 \mathrm{~V}$

  4. (4) $6 \mathrm{~V}$


Correct Option: 2,

Solution:

(2) Given, $E_{1}=1 V, E_{2}=2 V, E_{3}=3 V, r_{1}=1 \Omega$,

$r_{2}=1 \Omega$ and $r_{3}=1 \Omega$

$\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{AB}}=\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{CD}}=\frac{\frac{\mathrm{E}_{1}}{\mathrm{r}_{1}}+\frac{\mathrm{E}_{2}}{\mathrm{r}_{2}}+\frac{\mathrm{E}_{3}}{\mathrm{r}_{3}}}{\frac{1}{\mathrm{r}_{1}}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{r}_{2}}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{r}_{3}}}=\frac{\frac{1}{1}+\frac{2}{1}+\frac{3}{1}}{\frac{1}{1}+\frac{1}{1}+\frac{1}{1}}$

$=\frac{6}{3}=2 \mathrm{~V}$
