When two resistors are connected in series, their effective resistance is 80 S2. When they are connected in parallel, their effective resistance is 20 ohm. What are the values of the two resistances? (Answer : 40 , 40 )


vbijwe9: 40ohm, 40ohm

mornin!...
let the two resistance be of aΩ.
we know that when we connect 2 resistance in series i.e.
a+a=80
2a =80
a =80/2=40Ω
therefore value of the two resistance = 40Ω
......
u can also get it by parallel combination as
1/a + 1/a= 1/20
2/a = 1/20
a=40
.....have a nice day!..
thank u☺️
