Question

A 4-ohm and 6-ohm resistor connected in parallel have an equivalent resistance of

Answer 1

1/Req=1/4+1/6

=3/12+2/12

=5/12

Req =12/5

= 2.4 ohm

Answer 2

A resistor is an electrical component which resists the flow of incoming current.

If 4-ohm and 6-ohm resistor are connected in parallel, they will have the equivalent resistance of 2.4 ohms.

This can be calculated easily by using the resistance formula.

It is popularly known as the ohms law.

The ohms law is as follows,

V = IR, where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance of the current.
