    What is the smallest resistance that can be obtained by using a \[6\,\,\Omega \]. resistor and \[12\,\,\Omega \]. resistor respectively connected in parallel?

    A) \[4\,\,\Omega \]                            

    B) \[6\,\,\Omega \]                                            

    C) \[8\,\,\Omega \]                            

    D) \[12\,\,\Omega \]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    The smallest, total resistance that can be obtained only by parallel connection of resistors. \[\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{{{R}_{1}}}+\frac{1}{{{R}_{2}}}=\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{12}=\frac{1}{4},R=4.0\,\Omega \]
