Q
Q: Two resistors of 4Ω and 6Ω are connected in parallel. What is the equivalent resistance?
Solution:
Using the formula for parallel resistors, 1/R_eq = 1/R1 + 1/R2 = 1/4 + 1/6 = 5/12, R_eq = 12/5 = 2.4Ω.
Steps: 8
Show Steps
Step 1: Identify the resistors. We have two resistors: R1 = 4Ω and R2 = 6Ω.
Step 2: Use the formula for calculating equivalent resistance in parallel: 1/R_eq = 1/R1 + 1/R2.
Step 3: Substitute the values of R1 and R2 into the formula: 1/R_eq = 1/4 + 1/6.
Step 4: Find a common denominator to add the fractions. The common denominator for 4 and 6 is 12.
Step 5: Rewrite the fractions with the common denominator: 1/4 = 3/12 and 1/6 = 2/12.
Step 6: Add the fractions: 1/R_eq = 3/12 + 2/12 = 5/12.
Step 7: To find R_eq, take the reciprocal of 5/12: R_eq = 12/5.
Step 8: Calculate 12/5 to get the final equivalent resistance: R_eq = 2.4Ω.
