Two resistors of resistances R_(1)=100pm3 ohm and R_(2)=200pm4 ohm are connected (a) series , (b) in parallel. Find the equivalent resistance of the (a) series combination, (b) parallel combination. Use for (a) the relation R = R_(1)+R_(2) and for (b) (1)/(R') = (1)/(R_(1))+(1)/(R_(2)) and (DeltaR')/(R'^(2)) = (DeltaR_(1))/(R_(1)^(2))+(DeltaR_(2))/(R_(2))
