Q80 / 90 · KVPY 2012 (SB/SX) · Physics
As shown in the figure below, a cube is formed with ten identical resistance $\mathrm{R}$ (thick lines) and two shorteing wires (dotted lines) along the arms AC and BD.

Resistance between point $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{B}$ is-

Resistance between point $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{B}$ is-
- Correct answerA$\mathrm{R} / 2$
- B$5 \mathrm{R} / 6$
- C$3 \mathrm{R} / 4$
- D$\mathrm{R}$
Solution
The given circuit can be simplified into two wheatstone bridge in parallel
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
