Sometimes we come across a circuit which consists of more than one type of combination of resistance. That means some resistance may be parallel to each other and this combination can be in series with another resistance. Or we have different parallel combinations of resistance which are in series to each other. A combination circuit has some resistances connected in series combination and some parallel combination.
This type of combination is also called complex circuit. While solving problems of mixed combination of resistances, there are many points to be considered as given below:
Illustration: Consider the circuit diagram as shown in the figure then find the equivalent resistance of the circuit. |
Solution: From the combination, it can be observed that are connected in series order. As current through is same. So, their equivalent resistance is
Now, the given circuit can be redrawn as shown in the figure
Now, it can be seen that are in parallel combination. As, currents through are different. So, their equivalent resistance can be calculated as below
Now, the given circuit can be redrawn as shown in the figure
Now, it is clear from the diagram that all the resistances are in series combination.
As, current through is same.
Equivalent resistance of the circuit is
The battery has potential as = 16 V
By using the formula V = IR
As current flowing through is same because they are in series. So
and potential drop across them is
As is an equivalent resistance for a parallel combination of , So potential drop across them is the same
As is an equivalent resistance for a series combination of , So current flowing through is the same i.e 0.67 A

Abhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
It was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
I have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
A marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.
It has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
My experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
