प्रश्न
The diagram below shows part of a circuit:
If this arrangement of three resistors was to be replaced by a single resistor, its resistance should be:
(a) 9 Ω
(b) 4 Ω
(c) 6 Ω
(d) 18 Ω

उत्तर
(a) 9 Î
The two resistors of 6 Î are connected in parallel with each other. So, their net resistance 3 Î is connected in series with a resistance of 6 Î. So, the net resistance of the complete arrangement is 9 Ω.
