Question

What is the equivalent resistance when 0 and 10ohm wires are connected in parallel... Will the current will pass through 10ohm resistance??

Plz answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

Connecting a wire (0 ohms) in parallel to any electrical component will produce a short circuit.

Take:

$\implies$ $\sf{R_{1} = 10 \Omega}$

$\implies$ $\sf{R_{2} = 0 \Omega}$

And: $\sf{R = R_{1} \parallel R_{2}}$

That is:

$\huge\boxed{\sf{R = \frac{R_{1} \times R_{2}}{R_{1} + R_{2}}}}$

Note: Two resistors in parallel, equivalent resistance.

So:

$\implies$ $\sf{R = \frac{(0 \times 10)}{(0 + 10)}}$

$\implies$ $\sf{R = \frac{0}{10}}$

$\implies$ $\sf{R = 0}$

Therefore: Short circuit.

Answer 2

Answer: Short circuit.

Because equivalent resistance when 0 and 10ohm wires are connected in parallel
