Combination of Resistors

Resistance n, each of r ohm, when connected in parallel give an equivalent resistance of R ohm. If these resistances were connected in series, the combination would have a resistance in ohms, equal to

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. Parallel: R=r/n⇒r=nRR = r/n \Rightarrow r = nR.
  2. Series: Rs=nr=n2RR_s = nr = n^2R. The answer is (a).
