प्रश्न

How should the two resistances of 2 ohms each be connected so as to produce an equivalent resistance of 1 ohm?

Advertisements

उत्तर

The two resistors of 2 Ω each should be connected in parallel combination to produce equivalent resistance of 1 Ω.  

`1/R=1/R_1+1/R_2 ` 

`1/R=1/2+1/2` 

or `1/R=2/2` 

R=1 Ω 

R = 1

Total resistance, R = 1 Ω 

Resistance In parallel arangement is given by `

`1R=1R_1+1R_2`

`1R=12+12 or 1R=22 `

`R=1Ω `

The circuit depicted in the figure is employed for studying Ohm’s Law. Instead of using a standard resistor, a student opts for a glass tube filled with mercury (tube 1), connected to the circuit through two electrodes, E1 and E2. He records the readings of the ammeter and voltmeter, thereby calculating the resistance. The student repeats the experiment by substituting tube 1 with tube 2, where the same amount of mercury fills tube 2.
