CBSEENPH12047854

The equivalent resistance across A and B is

  • 2 Ω

  • 3 Ω

  • 4 Ω

  • 5 Ω

Solution

C.

4 Ω

The equivalent circuit can be redrawn as

    

We have

         pQ = RS

          44 = 44

So, the given circuit is a balanced Wheatstone's bridge.

Hence, the equivalent resistance

          RAB = 4 + 4 ×4 + 44+4 ×4+4

                 = 6416

          RAB = 4 Ω
