उत्तर
Resistance of 1 m of wire = 3 ohm
Resistance of 1.5 m of wire = 3 × 1.5 = 4.5 Ω
`1/R=1/4.5+1/4.5+1/4.5=3/4.5`
R = 1.5 Ω

The diagram above is a schematic diagram of a household circuit. The house shown in the above diagram has 5 usable spaces where electrical connections are made. For this house, the mains have a voltage of 220 V and the net current coming from the mains is 22A.
- What is the mode of connection to all the spaces in the house from the mains?
- The spaces 5 and 4 have the same resistance and spaces 3 and 2 have respective resistances of 20Ω and 30Ω. Space 1 has a resistance double that of space 5. What is the net resistance for space 5.
- What is the current in space 3?
- What should be placed between the main connection and the rest of the house’s electrical appliances to save them from accidental high electric current?
