Question

show how you would connrct three resistor each resistance 6 so that the combination has a resistance of 9 4​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Given :

• Three resistors are available of each of resistance 6 ohms

• An equivalent resistance of 9 ohms are produced by the combination

To find :

• How they shall be connected

Here two resistors of 6 ohms are to be connected in parallel and the other 6 ohms resistor is connected in series with that combination

Parallel combination :

1/equivalent resistance = 1/6 + 1/6

1/equivalent resistance = 2/6

Equivalent resistance = 6/2

Equivalent resistance = 3 ohms

Series combination :

Equivalent resistance = 6+3

Equivalent resistance = 9 ohms

The equivalent resistance is equal to 9 ohms
