What will be the change in the resistance of a circuit between A and B, consisting of five identical resistances, if two similar resistances are added as shown by the dashed line in

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

When two identical resistances are added in place of dashed lines.
`R_2 = R_(eq) = 3r`
But before adding the resistances, the equivalent resistance is
`R_1 =R(eq) =5r`
`:. (R_2)/(R_1) =(3)/(5)`
