There are $n$ similar conductors each of resistance $R$. The resultant resistance comes out to be $x$ when connected in parallel. If they are connected in series, the resistance comes out to be
A$x/{n^2}$
B${n^2}x$
C$x/n$
D$nx$

B${n^2}x$
b (b)In parallel, $x = \frac{R}{n}$ $R = nx$
In series, $R + R + R$ .... $n$ times $=$ $nR = n (nx) = n^2x$
