QUESTION:
Your electronics friend needs a 10-\(\Omega\) resistor but has only 40-\(\Omega\) ones. How can he combine them to produce an equivalent resistance of 10 \(\Omega\)?
ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
To obtain the equivalent resistance we have to add the given resistors in parallel.
The formula of equivalent resistance connected in parallel is given by:
