show how would u connect 3 resistor of 6 ohm so that we get 9 ohm and 4ohm the with diagram
Answers
Answer:
: To obtain a combined resistance of 9 ohms, three resistors each of resistance 6 ohm should be connected in a parallel circuit and one in series. In a parallel circuit, the equivalent resistance of all the resistors connected is equal to the reciprocal value of the sum of the individual resistances.
- Resistance of Each Resistor = 6
- Number of Resistor = 3
- How would we connect to these resistor to get equivalent resistance 4Ω.
Firstly we calculate the two resistors in Parallel
Equivalent resistance for 2 resistor which are connected in Parallel Connection
• 1/Req = 1/R1 + 1/R2 ......
Substitute the value we get
→ 1/Req = 1/6 + 1/6
→ 1/Req = 2/6
→ 1/Req = 1/3
→ Req = 3 Ω
Now, In this circuit we connect another resistor of 6 ohm . So , we get the equivalent resistance
→ Req = Req + R3
→ Req = 3+6
→ Req = 9Ω
Therefore the two resistor must be connected in parallel and one resistor in series to get 9Ω resistance.
__________________________________
For 4 Ω
To get 4 Ω equivalent resistance of Resistor we should connect the two resistor in series and one in parallel so, we get the equivalent resistance 4 ohm
Equivalent Resistance in Series = R1 + R2 ..
→ Req (in series) = 6+6
→ Req = 12Ω
Now, One resistor connect in parallel
→ 1/R = 1/6 + 1/12
→ 1/R = 3/12
→ 1/R = 1/4
→ R = 4Ω
So we should follow the given statement to get the 4Ω equivalent resistance.
