Answer:
Correct Answer: 23. (a)
Solution:
- (a) In series grouping equivalent resistance $R _{\text{series }}=nR$
In parallel grouping equivalent resistance
$R _{\text{parallel }}=\frac{R}{n}$
$I=\frac{E}{n R+R}$
$10 I=\frac{E}{\frac{R}{n}+R}$
Dividing eq. (ii) by (i),
$ 10=\frac{(n+1) R}{(\frac{1}{n}+1) R} $
Solving we get, $n=10$
