Express your answer using two significant figures.
Answer
Potenti als at points a,b,c,d be Va, Vb, Vc, Vd respectively.
The potential at the lower right point which is c is zero that is Vc = 0 V
Apply Kirchoff’s loop rule

i = 2 A
Here, i is the current through the circuit.
Here, Va– Vc = 5V
Va – 0 = 5V
Va = 5V
The expression for the potential difference between the c and b is

Thus, potentials at a and b are 5V and -2V respectively
