JEE Main 5 April 2024, Shift 1, Physics Q42

Question 42 of 90 in this shift, Physics question 12 of 30, Section A.

In the given figure

R_1 = 10\Omega

R_2 = 8\Omega

R_3 = 4\Omega

and

R_4 = 8\Omega

. Battery is ideal with emf 12V. Equivalent resistant of the circuit and current supplied by battery are respectively :

The figure, in words

Circuit: 12 V ideal battery (+ on top) in series with R1 on the top wire; to the right, R2 and R3 are in two vertical branches between the top and bottom wires, and R4 is drawn as a diagonal resistor connecting the bottom end of R2 (bottom-left node) to the top end of R3 (top-right node).
