Answer Neatly And Legibly in your Notebook.
1. Obtain VXY, the potential VX w.r.t. VY.

2. Find the currents in all the resistors of the network shown in the above fig. Also find the
potential at A w.r.t. that at B.
3. A resistance R is in series with a parallel combination of two resistances of 12 and 8 .
The total power dissipation in the circuit is 70 W when the supply voltage is 20 V. Find
R.
4. A current of 20 A flows through two ammeters A and B in series. The p.d. across A is 0.2
V and that across B is 0.3 V. Find how the same current will divide between A and B
when they are in parallel.
5. Two coils are connected in parallel and a voltage of 200 V is applied to the terminals.
The total current taken is 25 A and the power dissipated in one of the coils is 1500 W.
6. Determine the resistance of each coil.

7. Determine the current in each branch of the network shown.
