Question

6. A circuit consists of 1 ohm wire in series with a parallel arrangement of 6 ohm and 3 ohm wires. Calculate the total resistance of the circuit. (Ans. 30)​

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer which you have given is not possible for this question

First we will solve the resistance those which are in parallel.

so, by formula of parallel combination we can write,

R=(6×3)/6+3

= 18/9

= 2

And now we will add 2 and 1 as both will be in series

so total equivalent resistance of circuit will be 3.
