Figure represents a part of the closed circuit. The potential difference between points A and B (VA – VB) is

A
- 9 V
B
– 9 V
C
- 3 V
D
- 6 V
Answer
- 9 V
Explanation
Solution
The given part of a closed circuit can be redrawn as follows. It should be remember that product of current and resistance can be treated as an imaginary cell having emf = iR.

⇒ 7 Hence VA – VB = +9 V
⇒ 7 Hence VA – VB = +9 V
