Question

What is the resultant resistance of the circuit in the image shown?

A. 8Ω
B. 11Ω
C. 4Ω
D. 3.6Ω​

Answer 1

8 ohms

Step-by-step explanation:

The two resistors of 2 ohms each are connected in parallel so their equivalent resistance becomes

2*2/2+2=4/4=1 ohm

Now this 1 ohm resistance is in series with the other two resistors

Therefore resultant resistance becomes

3+1+4=8 ohms
