Question

Two resistances of 100 Ω and 0 Ω are connected in parallel. The overall resistance will be ___ ohm.

• A. 100Ω
• B. 0Ω
• C. 50Ω
• D. 20Ω

Answer 1

The correct option is B 0Ω

We know R of a circuit with two parallel resistors is $\frac{R1\times R2}{R1+R2}$
Thus R = $\frac{100\ast 0}{100+0}$ = 0
