Q. No.Given below are two statements:
Several resistances \(R_1, R_2, .........R_n\) are connected in parallel. The equivalent resistance of the combination is \(R\).
Several resistances \(R_1, R_2, .........R_n\) are connected in parallel. The equivalent resistance of the combination is \(R\).
| Assertion (A): | The fractional error in \(R\) is most affected by that of the smallest resistance in the combination, other things being equal. |
| Reason (R): | In parallel, the conductances add. The contribution to the overall error in the conductance is largest for the largest conductance or the smallest resistance. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
| 4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
