In the circuit, given in the figure currents in different branches and value of one resistor are shown. Then potential at point B with respect to the point A is:

Option 1 - <p>+1 V</p>
Option 2 - <p>-1 V<br>&lt;!-- [if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--&gt;<br>&lt;!--[endif]--&gt;</p>
Option 3 - <p>+2V<br>&lt;!--[endif]--&gt;</p>
Option 4 - <p>-2V</p>

Correct Option - 1
Detailed Solution:

Let us assume the potential at A = V_A = 0.
Now at junction C, according to KCL
i? + i? = i?
1 A + i? = 2 A


i? = 2 A
Now analyse potential along ACDB
V_A + 1 + i? (2) - 2 = V_B
0 + 1 + 2 (1) - 2 = V_B
V_B = 3 - 2
V_B = 1amp.
