The equivalent resistance across P and Q in the given electric circuit will be

A

`1Omega`

B

`2Omega`

C

`3Omega`

D

`5Omega`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

This is balanced Wheatstone's bridge. Thus, the resistance ` 2 Omega` is ineffective and ` 1 Omega` and `1 Omega ` are in series and `1 Omega` and `1 Omega` are in series.
Thus, `R_(s1)=1+1=2Omega` and
`R_(s2)=1+1=2Omega` are in parallel,
so effective resistance is ,
