A wire of resistance R is cut into 8 equal pieces. From these pieces two equivalent resistances are made by adding four of these together in parallel. Then these two sets are added in series. The net effective resistance of the combination is:

  1. R16
  2. R8
  3. R64
  4. R32

Answer

(1) R16

Solution

Resistance of each piece: r = R8

Four pieces in parallel: Rp = r4 = R32

Two such sets in series: Rnet = 2 R32 = R16

Answer: (1)
