Question

In the adjoining circuit, if reading of voltmeter \( V_1 \) and \( V_2 \) are 300 volts, each, then the reading voltmeter \( V_3 \) and ammeter \( A \) are respectively

• A. \( 220 \, \text{V}, 2.2 \, \text{A} \)
• B. \( 220 \, \text{V}, 2.0 \, \text{A} \)
• C. \( 100 \, \text{V}, 2.2 \, \text{A} \)
• D. \( 100 \, \text{V}, 2.0 \, \text{A} \)

Hint:

Ohm's law can be used to determine the voltage and current in a circuit when the resistance and total voltage are known.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Analyzing the circuit.
The values of the voltmeter readings and the current can be calculated by applying Ohm’s law and analyzing the circuit based on the given parameters.

Step 2: Conclusion.
The correct readings are \( 220 \, \text{V} \) and \( 2.2 \, \text{A} \), corresponding to option (1).
