    In equal resistors are first connected in series and then in parallel. The ratio of maximum to the minimum resistance is

    A)  \[1\,\,:\,\,{{n}^{2}}\]  

    B)  \[{{\operatorname{n}}^{2}}\,\,:\,\,1\]

    C)  \[1\,\,:\,\,1\]                  

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Resistance will be maximum when connected in series \[{{R}_{series}}=nR\] Resistance will be minimum when connected in parallel \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\frac{1}{{{R}_{parallel}}}=\frac{1}{R}+\frac{1}{R}+\,\,........\,upto\,\,n\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{{R}_{parallel}}\,\,=\,\,\frac{R}{n}\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\frac{{{R}_{series}}}{{{R}_{parallel}}}\,\,=\,\,\frac{nR}{\frac{R}{n}}=\frac{{{n}^{2}}}{1}\]
