उत्तर
Current will be minimum when the rheostat will have maximum resistance, i.e 30 Ω.
In this case, total resistance of the circuit = \[\frac{20 \times 10}{30} + 30 = 36 . 67 \Omega\]
The minimum current through the circuit,
\[i_\min = \frac{5 . 5}{36 . 67} = 0 . 15 A\]
Current will be maximum when the rheostat will have minimum resistance, i.e. 0 Ω.
In this case, total resistance of the circuit = \[\frac{20 \times 10}{30} = 6 . 67 \Omega\]
The maximum current through the circuit,
\[i_\max = \frac{5 . 5}{6 . 67} = 0 . 825 A\]
