Find the total resistance of parallel connection of series resistors. |
|
Answer» Solution :(i) A connection of a SET of series resistors connected in a parallel circuit, is a parallel -series circuit. (ii) Let `R_(1)` and `R_(2)` be connected in series to GIVE an effective resistance of `R_(S1)`. (iii) Similarly, let `R_(3)` and `R_(4)` be connected in series to give an effective resistance of `R_(S2)`. (iv) Then ,both of these serial segments are connected in parallel (Figure). Using the equation `R_(s) = R_(1) +R_(2)` `R_(s1) = R_(1) +R_(2)` `R_(s2) = R_(3) +R_(4)` FINALLY , using equation `((1)/(R_(p)) = (1)/(R_(1)) +(1)/(R_(2)))` , the net effective resistance is given by `(1)/(R_("total")) = (1)/(R_(s1)) +(1)/(R_(s2))` |
