Solution

The correct option is C 0.9 V
Current in the circuit due to 6 V battery is
$l = \frac{6}{1 + 5 + 2} = \frac{3}{4} A$
Now emf of cell C =potential difference across AD
$= \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{3 \times 60}{100} = 0.9 V$

The correct option is C 0.9 V Current in the circuit due to 6 V battery is l=61+5+2=34A Now emf of cell C =potential difference across AD =34× 3 × 60100=0.9 V

The correct option is C 0.9 V
Current in the circuit due to 6 V battery is
$l = \frac{6}{1 + 5 + 2} = \frac{3}{4} A$
Now emf of cell C =potential difference across AD
$= \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{3 \times 60}{100} = 0.9 V$
