In the given figure switches \(S_{1}\) and \(S_{2}\) are in open condition. The resistance across \(a b\) when the switches \(S_{1}\) and \(S_{2}\) are closed is \(...\,\Omega\)

Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(10\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\frac{12 \times 6}{12+6}+2+\frac{6 \times 12}{6+12}\)
\(\frac{72}{18}+2+\frac{72}{18}=4+2+4=10\, \Omega\)
