Question :Assertion (A): The equivalent resistance between points A and B in the
given network is 2R.
Reason (R): All the resistors are connected in parallel
The correct answer is -The assertion (A) is not correct, and the reason (R) is incorrect as well.
The given circuit has resistors connected in both series and parallel configurations. To calculate the equivalent resistance between points A and B, we need to simplify the circuit using the appropriate rules.
If we apply the series and parallel rules to the resistors, we can reduce the circuit to a single equivalent resistor between points A and B. The resulting equivalent resistance is:
R_eq = R/2
Therefore, the assertion (A) is incorrect, and the reason (R) is incorrect as well. All the resistors are not connected in parallel.
So, the correct answer is:
Assertion (A) is incorrect, and reason (R) is incorrect as well.
