The equivalent resistance between point ...

The equivalent resistance between point x and y, of the circuit as shown in the figure is

A

R

B

`(3R)/(2)`

C

`(3R)/(4)`

D

`(8R)/(5)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Use `1/R_P = 1/R_1 + 1/R_2 +` …. And
`R_S=R_1_R_2+R_3+……`
Circuit can be redrawn as

`R_(eq) = (2Rxx6R)/(2R+6R)=12/8R=3/2R`
