    Consider the circuits shown in the figure. Both the circuits are taking same current from battery but current through R in the second circuit is \[\frac{1}{10}\]th of current through R in the first circuit. If R is 11 W, the value of R1

    A)            9.9 W

    B)            11 W

    C)            8.8 W

    D)            7.7 W

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                       In figure (b) current through \[{{R}_{2}}=i-\frac{i}{10}=\frac{9i}{10}\] Potential difference across \[{{R}_{2}}\] = Potential difference across R  Þ \[{{R}_{2}}\times \frac{9}{10}i=R\times \frac{i}{10}\] i.e. \[{{R}_{2}}=\frac{R}{9}=\frac{11}{9}\Omega \] \[{{R}_{eq}}=\frac{{{R}_{2}}\times R}{({{R}_{2}}+R)}=\frac{\frac{11}{9}\times \frac{11}{1}}{\frac{11}{9}+\frac{11}{1}}=\frac{11}{10}\Omega \] Total circuit resistance \[=\frac{11}{10}+{{R}_{1}}=R=11\]Þ \[{{R}_{1}}=9.9\Omega \]
