If three resistors of 1 Ohm each connect in parallel to each other the resultant resistance is
- A. 1 Ohm
- B. \frac{1}{3} Ohm ✓
- C. 3 Ohm
- D. 9 Ohm
Correct Answer: B. \frac{1}{3} Ohm
Explanation
For identical resistors connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance is R/n. Here, 1 Ohm / 3 = 1/3 Ohm.
