प्रश्न
If the equivalent resistance is to be increased, then the number of resistances should be connected in
- Series
- Parallel
- Mixed arrangement
- None of the above
उत्तर
(a) Series.
The effective resistance in series is the sum of individual resistances. So, the resistances should be connected in series in order to increase the effective
resistance.
