Answer Key : (a) -

R2 = 16 R1



Next Question :

Three resistances R1 = 4 , R2 = 8  and R3 = 2  are connected in a circuit carrying a total current I as shown in the figure. If the current through the resistance R1 = 4  is 1.2 A, then the potential difference across the resistance R3 is

(a)

3.6 V

(b)

4.8 V

(c)

8.4 V

(d)

3.15 V
