उत्तर
(a) Resistors 3 Ω and 5 Ω are in series. The equivalent resistance of these two is 8 Ω.
Now, this 8 Ω is connected with another 8 Ω resistors in parallel.
The equivalent resistance of these two is
`= (8 xx 8)/(8 + 8)`
`= 64/16`
= 4 Ω.
Thus, the total resistance across AB is 4 Ω.
(b) If a cell of e.m.f 2.4 V with negligible internal resistance is connected across AB then the current drawn from the cell is
`= ("Voltage" ("V"))/("equivalent resistance" ("R"))`
`= 2.4/4`
= 0.6 A.
