Question

What is the equivalent resistance between A and B in the circuit if $R=3\Omega$.

• A. 8
• B. 6
• C. 7
• D. 9

Answer 1

The correct option is A

8

Effective resistance of the resistance between C and $D=\frac{R\times 2R}{R+2R}=\frac{2}{3}R$
Total resistance between A and $B=R+\frac{2}{3}R+R$
$=\frac{8}{3}R=\frac{8}{3}\times 3=8\Omega$
