NEET 2024 Physics Resistances in Series and Parallel MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Easy-Class 12

A wire of length ‘l’ and resistance 100 Ω is divided into 10 equal parts. The first 5 parts are connected in series while the next 5 parts are connected in parallel. The two combinations are again connected in series. The resistance of this final combination is:

A

55 Ω

B

60 Ω

C

26 Ω

D

52 Ω

Correct Answer

Option D

Detailed Explanation

The resistance of the first 5 parts in series is 50 Ω. The resistance of the next 5 parts in parallel is 10 Ω. The total resistance is 50 Ω + 2 Ω = 52 Ω.
