Question

26. A wire of resistance 20 ohms is cut is cut into two identical parts and then
connected in parallel. What is the equivalent resistance?​

Answer 1

Answer:

these two parts are connected in parallel what will be the resistance of the combination. Since the wires have been cut into 2 equal pieces of resistance 20 ohm, so now the resistance will be R/2 = 20/2 = 10 ohm.

Answer 2

Answer:

10

Explanation:

these two parts are connected in parallel

R=20

R/2=20/2=10
