  1. 0.4 A towards O
  2. 0.4 A away from O
  3. 0.6 A towards O
  4. 0.6 A away from O

A
0.4 A away from O
B
0.4 A towards O
C
0.6 A towards O
D
0.6 A away from O
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Let the potential at the common point of all branches be V.
Then, using nodal analysis:
5V10=V1020+V2040+V1580V=13515,I=5V10=0.4 A
Since, negative sign is there, that means the current will be away from O.
