A wire of resistance R is divided in 10 equal parts. These parts are connected in parallel. The equivalent resistance of such connection will be

a
0.01 R
b
0.1 R
c
10 R
d
100 R

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Each part will have a resistance r = R/10Let equivalent resistance be rR. Then1rR =1r +1r +1r ....10 times∴   1rR = 10r =  10R/10 = 100R ⇒ rR=R100=0.01R
