    The current passing through the ideal ammeter in the circuit given below is

    A)  1.25 A                                  

    B)  1 A

    C)  0.75 A                                  

    D)  0.5 A

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Here, \[2\Omega \] and \[2\Omega \] are in parallel \[\therefore \]  \[\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\]                 \[R=\frac{2\times 2}{2+2}=1\,\Omega \] Now, internal resistance \[(1\,\Omega ),\,\,2\Omega ,\,4\Omega \] and resistance R are in series. \[\therefore \]  \[{{R}_{net}}=1\,\Omega +2\,\Omega +4\,\Omega +1\,\Omega \]                                 \[=8\,\Omega \] Hence, current \[I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{4}{8}=0.5\,A\]
