The equivalent resistance between the po...

The equivalent resistance between the point `P` and `Q` in the network given here is equal to (given `r = (3)/(2) Omega)`

A

`1//2Omega`

B

`1Omega`

C

`3//2Omega`

D

`2 Omega`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
2

This is, infact, Wheatstone's net. When a cell is applied between P and Q, potentials of A and C become equal and no current flow along AC. Thus the resistances AB and BC becom e ineffective.
