Question

To increase the value of the resistance, resistors should be connected in:

• A. Series
• B. Parallel
• C. Both (A) and (B)
• D. None of these

Hint:

Series = more resistance, Parallel = less resistance.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Concept.
In series: \(R_{eq} = R_1 + R_2 + R_3 ...\) (greater than individual).
In parallel: \(R_{eq}<R_{smallest}\).
Step 2: Conclusion.
So, to increase resistance, use series.
