Question

The equivalent resistance of the parallel combination of two resistance of 60ohms and 40ohms is________
​

Answer 1

24 ohms

Explanation:

as effective resistance 1/Reffective =1/R1+1/R2

i.e 24 ohms

Answer 2

Answer:

Equivalant resistance of parallel = 1/R1 + 1 / R2

RP = 1 / 60  + 1/40

RP  = 2 + 3 / 120

RP = 5 / 120

120RP = 5

RP = 0.04 OHM
