The equivalent resistance between the points \(X\) and \(Y\) in the following circuit diagram will be

• A

  \(10 \Omega\)
• Correct answer
  B

  \(5 \Omega\)
• C

  \(7 \Omega\)
• D

  \(3 \Omega\).

Solution

$R_{X Y}=\frac{10 \times 10}{10+10}=5 \Omega$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
