Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) r

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The bridge is balanced: \( \frac{r}{r} = \frac{r}{r} \). The resistor across the mid-points is ineffective. Top branch: \( R_{top} = r + r = 2r \) Bottom branch: \( R_{bottom} = r + r = 2r \) Equivalent resistance:…
