  1. The total power consumed in the circuit shown in the figure is—


    1. 10W
    2. 12W
    3. 16W
    4. 20W
Correct Option: A

The given circuit:

Case 1: When current source is taken:

The net current in branch AB is 2A
Case 2: When voltage source is taken:

The net current in branch BC is 2/2 = 1A
Now, the total power consumed in the circuit:
= I2ABRAB + I2BC × RBC
= 22 × 2 + 12 × 2
= 10W.
