Explain with the help of a labelled circuit diagram how you will find the resistance of a combination of three resistors, or resistance R1, R2 and R3, joined in parallel. Also mention how you will connect the ammeter and the voltmeter in the circuit when measuring the current in the circuit and the potential difference across one of the three resistors of the combination.

A student made a circuit by using an electric cell, a switch, a torch bulb (fitted in the bulb holder), and copper connecting wires. When he turned on the switch, the torch bulb did not glow at all. The student checked the circuit and found that all the wire connections were tight.
- What could be the possible reason for the torch bulb not glowing even when the circuit appears to be complete?
