उत्तर

Given: P = Q = R = 6 Ω

To find: Resistance (X)

Formula: `"P"/"Q" = "R"/"S"` 

Calculation: 

Let resistance connected across 18 Ω be X.
Equivalent resistance for 18 Ω and X in parallel is given by,

X' = S = `(18"X")/(18 + "X")`

From formula,

`6/6 = 6/((18"X")/(18 + "X"))`

∴ 1 = `(6(18 + "X"))/(18"X")`

∴ 18X = 108 + 6X

∴ 12X = 108

∴ X = 9 Ω

The resistance connected across 18 Ω resistance to balance the network is 9 Ω.
