Two resistors having resistance 4ЁЭЫА and 6ЁЭЫА are connected in parallel. Find their equivalent resistance.
рдЙрддреНрддрд░
Let ' R be their equivalent resistance of the 4Ω and 6Ω resistors connected in parallel
Then, `1/R=1/4+1/6=(3+2)/12=5/12Ω`
Or, `R=12/5=2.4Ω`

Two resistors, with resistance 5 Ω and 10 Ω respectively are to be connected to a battery of emf 6 V so as to obtain:
(i) minimum current flowing
(ii) maximum current flowing
(a) How will you connect the resistances in each case?
(b) Calculate the strength of the total current in the circuit in the two cases.
