Three resistors with resistance 200Ω, 500Ω and 1kΩ are connected in series. A 6v battery is connected to either end of the combination. Calculate the potential difference between the ends of 200Ω resistance.

A

0.71V

B

0.7V

C

0.82V

D

0.8V

correct option: a

 

 

Req = 200 + 500 + 1000 = 1700Ω

The potential difference, p.d (across 200Ω) = 200
1700
× 6 = 0.71V

pd = 0.71v
