NEET Physics Question (2024) — Solution

Question

A wire of length ' 1 and resistance 100 is divided into 10 equal parts. The first 5 parts are connected in series while the next 5 parts are connected in parallel. The two combinations are again connected in series. The resistance of this final combination is:

Options

  1. A. 52
  2. B. 55
  3. C. 60
  4. D. 26

Answer

A. 52

Step-by-step solution

Divided into 10 parts aligned R & = l A \\ R^ & = l 10 A = R 10 \\ R_S & =5 R 10 [series] \\ R_S & =50 \\ R_P & = R 50 [parallel] \\ R_ eq & =R_S+R_P \\ & =52 aligned
