उत्तर

r1 and r2 are in series

∴ R1 = r1 + r2

= 3 + 3

= 6 Ω

Now R1 and r3 are in parallel

∴ `1/"R"_"p" = 1/"R"_1 + 1/"R"_3`

= `1/6 + 1/3`

= `(1 + 2)/6`

= `1/2`

  1. Resistance between P and Q = Rp = 2 Ω
  2. Resistance between X and Y r4, Rp and r5 are in series
    ∴ R = r4 + Rp + r5
    R = 3 + 2 + 3
    = 8 Ω
