Question

Calculate the combined resistance in each case:
✓

Answer

a. $R_1=500$ ohm, $R_2=1000$ ohm
As per given figure,
$R=R_1+R_2=500+1000=1500 \text { ohm. }$
b. $R_1=2$ ohm, $R_2=2$ ohm
As per given figure,
$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}$
$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}$
$R=1 ohm$
c. $R _1=4$ ohm, $R _2=4$ ohm, $R _3$
As per given figure,
$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}$
$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}$
$R=2 ohm$
Total resistance $=R+R_3$
$=2+3=5 ohm$
