In a ____________ circuit, the total resistance is smaller than the smallest resistance in the circuit.(a) Series(b) Parallel(c) Either series or parallel(d) Neither series nor parallelI got this question during an interview.I would like to ask this question from Series Circuits and Parallel Networks in division Simple DC Networks of Basic Electrical Engineering

Answer»

The correct CHOICE is (B) PARALLEL

The EXPLANATION is: in a parallel circuit, the EQUIVALENT resistance=1/sum of the reciprocals of all the resistances in the circuit. Hence it is smaller than the smallest resistance in the circuit.
