Question

In the circuit shown, n identical resistors R are connected in parallel (n>1) and the combination in series to another resistor R0. In the adjoining circuit n resistors of resistance R are all connected in series along with R0.
The batteries in both circuits are identical and net power dissipated in the n resistors in both circuit is same. The ratio R0/R is :

Solution

The correct option is A 1
Answer is A.
The current in the ciruits is given as i1=nEnR0+Randi2=ER0+nR.
The power in the circuit is given as P1=nE2R(nR0+R)2andP2=nE2R(R0+nR)2.
Since, P1=P2
Hence, the ratio, R0/R = 1.
