Question

Find the current through 6Ω resistor in the circuit shown below.

(a) 0.11

(b) 0.22

(c) 0.33

(d) 0.44

I have been asked this question in an online interview.

This interesting question is from Compensation Theorem in section Useful Theorems in Circuit Analysis of Network Theory

Answer 1

Correct option is (c) 0.33

Best explanation: Total current in the circuit = 10/(4+3||2||6)=2A. Current through 6Ω resistor = 2×(3||2)/(6+3||2)=0.33A.
