Answer» Correct Answer - D The resistance of `6 Omega` and `3 Omega` are in parallel in the given circuit, their equivalent resistance is `1/(R_(1))=1/6+1/3=(1+2)/6=1/2` or `R_(1)=2Omega` Again `R_(1)` is in series with `4 Omega` resistance hence `R=R_(1)+4=2+4 =6Omega` Thus, the total dissipated in the circuit `p=(V^(2))/R` Here `V=18 V, R=6 Omega` Thus, `p=((18)^(2))/6=54W` |
