उत्तर

Two resistors of resistance 1.0 Ω and 2.0 Ω are connected in series and then this combination is connected in parallel with the resistor of resistance 3.0 Ω. The arrangement is shown in given figure alongside
Total resistance of series combination R = 1 + 2 = 3 Ω.
Total effective resistance of parallel combination
R = `(3 xx 3)/(3 + 3) = 1.5 Ω`

Answer the following question.
While studying the dependence of potential difference ( V) across a resistor on the current (I) passing through it, in order to determine the resistance of the resistor, a student took 5 readings for different values of current and plotted a graph between V and t. He got a straight line graph passing through the origin. What does the straight-line signify? Write the method of determining the resistance of the resister using this graph.
