The correct Answer is:
To find the resultant resistance of the given circuit, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the equivalent resistance of the three resistors in parallel. When resistors are connected in parallel, the formula for the equivalent resistance \( R_p \) is given by: \[ \frac{1}{R_p} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2} + \frac{1}{R_3} \] In this case, all three resistors have a resistance of \( 1 \Omega \): \[ \frac{1}{R_p} = \frac{1}{1} + \frac{1}{1} + \frac{1}{1} = 3 \] Thus, \[ R_p = \frac{1}{3} \Omega \] ### Step 2: Add the equivalent resistance of the parallel combination to the series resistor. Now, we have the equivalent resistance of the parallel resistors \( R_p = \frac{1}{3} \Omega \) and a series resistor of \( \frac{5}{3} \Omega \). The total resistance \( R_t \) in series is given by: \[ R_t = R_p + R_s \] Where \( R_s = \frac{5}{3} \Omega \): \[ R_t = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{5}{3} = \frac{1 + 5}{3} = \frac{6}{3} = 2 \Omega \] ### Final Result The resultant resistance of the entire circuit is: \[ \boxed{2 \Omega} \] ---
