Hi,
Here is your answer
Given:
Equivalent resistance(R)=6Ω
Resistance(R1)=15Ω
To Find:
Resistance(R2)
Solution:
The series is connected in parallel as the equivalent resistance is less than the individual resistance,
The equation for finding the total resistance is
Substitute the given datas in the above equation
We get,
Hence
R2=10Ω
Notes:
1. If a series is connected in parallel, total resistance is given by
2. If a series is connected in series, total resistance is given by
R=R1+R2+.......+Rn
Hope this helps you.
