Problem

In a Wheatstone bridge, the resistances are AB=100 ΩAB=100\,\Omega, BC=150 ΩBC=150\,\Omega, AD=120 ΩAD=120\,\Omega and DC=160 ΩDC=160\,\Omega. A galvanometer of resistance 20 Ω20\,\Omega is connected between BB and DD, and an ideal 10 V10\,\text{V} source is connected between AA and CC. The magnitude of current flowing through the galvanometer is (a) 0 mA0\,\text{mA} (b) 1.9 mA1.9\,\text{mA} from BB to DD (c) 14 mA14\,\text{mA} from BB to DD (d) 1.9 mA1.9\,\text{mA} from DD to BB
