Answer:
12 ohms
Explanation:
Given :
- Four resistors of 12 ohms are connected in parallel combination
- Such four combinations of four 12 ohm resistors are connected in series
To find :
- Resistance of such combination
Parallel combination effective resistance :
1/equivalent resistance = 1/12 + 1/12 + 1/12 + 1/12
1/equivalent resistance = 4/12
Equivalent resistance = 12/4
Equivalent resistance = 3 ohms
Such four 3 ohms resistors are connected in series
Equivalent resistance :
Equivalent resistance = 3+3+3+3
Equivalent resistance = 12 ohms
The resistance prevalent in the circuit is equal to 12 ohms
