CBSE Class 12-science Answered

You are given n wires, each of resistance R. What is the ratio of maximum to minimum resistance obtained from these wires?
Asked by Topperlearning User | 04 Jun, 2014, 01:23: PM
answered-by-expert Expert Answer

The resistance obtained will be maximum when the wires are connected in series. However, when the wires are connected in parallel, the resistance will be minimum.
