Question

a 9 ohm resistor is cut into three parts and connected in parallel find the equivalent resistance of the combination

Answer 1

Answer:

1 ohm

Explanation:

9 ohm resistance is divided into 3 equal parts

therefore the resistance is 3 ohm each

equivalent resistance in parallel combination =1/3+1/3+1/3= 1 ohm

therefore the equivalent resistance = 1 ohm
