MCQ
Five resistors are connected as shown in the diagram. The equivalent resistance between $A$ and $B$ is .............. $ohm$
  • $6$
  • B
    $9$
  • C
    $12$
  • D
    $15$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$6$
a
Since the given bridge is balanced, hence there will be no current through $9\,\Omega $ resistance. This resistance has no effect and must be ignored in the calculations.

${R_{AB}} = \frac{{9 \times 18}}{{27}} = 6\,\Omega $
