The equivalent resistance between the points A and B will be (each resistance is 15 Ω)

          

  • 30 Ω

  • 8 Ω

  • 10 Ω

  • 40 Ω


B.

8 Ω

The circuit can be shown as given below

     

The equivalent resistance between D and C

RDC = 15 × 15 + 1515 + 15 + 15 = 15 × 3015 + 30       = 15 × 3045 = 10 Ω

Now, between A and B, the resistance of upper part ADCB,

R1 = 15 + 10 + 15 = 40 Ω

Between A and B, the resistance of middle part AOB

R2 = 15 + 15 = 30 Ω

Therefore, equivalent resistance between A and B

      1R' = 1R1 + 1R2 + 1R3 = 140 + 130 + 115           = 3 + 4 + 8120 = 15120 R' = 12015 R' = 8 Ω
