Question

two resistors are connected in series gives an equivalent resistance of 10 ohm. When connected in parallels it gives 2.5 ohm. Find the value of individual resistances.

Answer 1

Answer:

when in series,R1+R2=10

when in parallel,1/R1+1/R2=2.4

on solving, 10/R1R2=2.4

; answer is 6 and 4
