MCQ
The equivalent resistance between ends $A$ and $B$ is
  • A
    Greater than $\frac{{{R_{1\,}}\, + \,{R_2}}}{2}$
  • B
    Less than $\frac{{2{R_1}{R_2}}}{{{R_{1\,}}\, + \,{R_2}}}$
  • C
     Equal to $R_3$ 
  • Depends on $R_1, R_2$ and $R_3$

Answer

Correct option: D.
Depends on $R_1, R_2$ and $R_3$
d
$\frac{2 \mathrm{R}_{1} \mathrm{R}_{2}}{\mathrm{R}_{1}+\mathrm{R}_{2}} \leq \mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{AB}} \leq \frac{\mathrm{R}_{1}+\mathrm{R}_{2}}{2}$

Also $\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{AB}}$ depends upon $\mathrm{R}_{1}, \mathrm{R}_{2}$ and $\mathrm{R}_{3}$
