Question

Three resistances of 2 ohm, 3ohm and 5 ohm are connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance will be​

Answer 1

Answer:

equivalent resistance will be​ (30/31) ohms.

Explanation:

as the resistance are connected in parallel

equivalent resistance =

R1, R2, R3 … in parallel, the total resistance R(T) : 1/R(T) = (1/R1) + (1/R2) +(1/R3)

For resistors 2 ohms, 3 ohms , 5 ohms:

=1/R(T) = (1/2)+(1/3) +(1/5)

= 31/30.

Total resistance R(T) = (30/31) ohms.
