If three resistors of 2 Ω, 3 Ω, and 6 Ω are connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance of the combination is:
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:
For resistors in parallel, the reciprocal of the equivalent resistance (1/Rp) is the sum of the reciprocals of individual resistances. 1/Rp = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 = 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/6. Finding a common denominator (6): 1/Rp = 3/6 + 2/6 + 1/6 = 6/6 = 1. Therefore, Rp = 1 Ω.
