Question

Calculate the effective resistance between the points A and B in the circuit shown in figure.

KnowledgeBoat · Accepted Answer

In the circuit, there are four parts. In the first part, three resistors of 1 Ω each are connected in series. If the equivalent resistance of this part is R'_s then R'_s = (1 + 1 + 1) Ω = 3 Ω In the second part, three resistors of 2 Ω each are connected in series. If the equivalent resistance of this part is R''_s then R''_s = (2 + 2 + 2) Ω = 6 Ω In the third part, the two parts of resistance R'_s = 3 Ω and R''_s = 6 Ω and 2 Ω are connected in parallel. If the equivalent resistance is R_p then R_p = 1 Ω In the fourth part 1 Ω, (R_p = 1 Ω) and 1 Ω are connected in series in between points A and B. Hence, the equivalent resistance is 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 Ω
