Questions  

Two resistors of resistances R1=100±3Ω  and  R2=200±4Ω are connected in parallel,  then the equivalent resistance in parallel is (in ohm) (Use  1R'=1R1+1R2  and  ΔR'ΔR'2=ΔR1R12+ΔR2R22)

a
66.7±1.8
b
300±7
c
150.8±2
d
92.3±3

detailed solution

Correct option is A

The equivalent resistance of parallel combination is R'=R1R2R1+R2=2003=66.7  ΩFrom, 1R'=1R1+1R2, we getΔR'R'2=ΔR1R12+ΔR2R22ΔR'=(R'2)ΔR1R12+(R'2)ΔR2R22=(66.7100)23+(66.7200)24=1.8  ΩHence, R'=(66.7±1.8)Ω
