Question

wire of resistance R is cut into three pieces then this pieces are arranged in such a way to get minimum equivalent resistance find the value of equivalent resistance​

Answer 1

Since we know that in parallel combination equivalent minimum of all the individual resistances.

thus,

1/R(eq) = 1/R + 1/R+ 1/R

1/R(eq) = 3/R

R(eq) = R/3
