The V-I graph for a series combination and for a parallel combination of two resistors is shown in the figure. Out of A and B, which one represents the parallel combination? Give a reason for your answer.

Solution

'A' represents parallel combination because A is less steeper than B so resistance of 'A' is less than 'B'. As we know resistance in parallel combination is less than series combination.
