The equivalent resistance of the circuit between A and B is
Options
- A30
- B20
- C10
- D13.33
Correct answer
D. 13.33
Step-by-step solution
The given circuit diagram is redrawn as Since, R_ A C R_ A D = R_ B C R_ D B Given circuit is balanced Wheatstone bridge, hence 30 resistance is useless. Therefore, aligned R_ A B &=(20+20) |(10+10) &=40 | 20= 40 20 40+20 &= 800 60 = 40 3 =13.33 aligned
