Question #1
A wire of resistance 5 Ω is bent into a circle. The effective resistance between ends of a diameter is
A. 10 Ω
B. 2.5 Ω
C. 1.25 Ω
D. 5 Ω

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Circle total resistance 5 Ω. Across diameter, two halves in parallel, each half 2.5 Ω. Parallel: R = (2.5×2.5)/(2.5+2.5) = 6.25/5 = 1.25 Ω. Equal parallel resistors gives half of each.
