Series-Parallel Circuits - Technical MCQs

Q1:

If R3 opens in the given circuit, the total resistance (RT) between points A and B equals ____.

A 900 omega.gif

B 100 omega.gif

C 110 omega.gif

D infinite resistance

ANS:C - 110 omega.gif

If R3 opens; then R1 comes in SERIES with R2. So, RT = 10 + 100 = 110Ω.
