Three resistors are connected to form the sides of a triangle ABC , the resistance of the sides AB, BC and CA are 40 ohms , 60 ohms and 100 ohms respectively. The effective resistance between the points A and B in ohms will be

A

32

B

64

C

50

D

200

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Here, `40Omega` is in parallel with `(100+60)Omega`. So, effective resistance between A and B is
`=(40xx(100+60))/(40+(100+60))=32Omega`
