In two circuit shown above the value of current I1 (in amperes) is equal to \(-\frac{y}{5}A\) . Value of y is equal to
Correct Answer: 11
Solution and Explanation
We use Kirchhoff's current and voltage laws to solve for the unknown currents.
Step 1: Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL):
The first equation is given by:
\[ I_1 + I_3 - I_2 = -2 ag{1} \]
Step 2: Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL):
The second equation is:
\[ I_3 + 2I_2 = 5 ag{2} \]
Step 3: Substituting into KVL:
The third equation is:
\[ 2I_2 - (I_3 - I_2) - (I_1 + I_3 - I_2) = 5 ag{3} \]
Solving the Equations:
From equation (3):
\[ I_1 = -\frac{11}{5} \, \text{A} \]
Therefore:
\[ y = 11 \]
Final Answer:
\(y = 11\)

Two cells of emf 1V and 2V and internal resistance 2 \( \Omega \) and 1 \( \Omega \), respectively, are connected in series with an external resistance of 6 \( \Omega \). The total current in the circuit is \( I_1 \). Now the same two cells in parallel configuration are connected to the same external resistance. In this case, the total current drawn is \( I_2 \). The value of \( \left( \frac{I_1}{I_2} \right) \) is \( \frac{x}{3} \). The value of x is 1cm.
