Current Electricity

A wire of resistance is cut into 8 equal pieces. From these pieces two equivalent resistances are made by adding four of them together in parallel. Then these two sets are added in series. The net effective resistance of the combination is:

  1. A.
  2. B.
  3. C.
  4. D.

Solution

Each piece is . Four in parallel give ; two such sets in series give .
