Two resistors of resistance R1R_{1} and R2R_{2} having R1>R2R_{1} > R_{2} are connected in parallel. For equivalent resistance RR, the correct statement is

A

R>R1+R2R > R_{1} + R_{2}

B

R1<R<R2R_{1} < R < R_{2}

C

R2<R<(R1+R2)R_{2} < R < (R_{1} + R_{2})

D

R<R1R < R_{1}

Answer

R<R1R < R_{1}

Explanation

Solution

Equivalent resistance of parallel resistors is always less than any of the member of the resistance system.
