Question
Calculate the current drawn from the battery in the given network shown here. State Kirchhoff’s loop law and name the law on which it is based.

Answer
The equivalent circuit is as shown in figure alongside. [$\therefore$ Bridge is in balanced condition, no current flows through $5\Omega$ resistance] $\frac{1}{\text{R}}=\frac{1}{5}+\frac15\text{R}=5\Omega$
