Solution:
r(eq) = r/n.
= 2/15 = 0.133 m ohm = 133k Ω.
r(eq) = r/n.
= 2/15 = 0.133 m ohm = 133k Ω.

We know that.
1/RT = 1/R1+1/R2+1/R3.......1/Rn.
Then RT for fifteen 2 Mohm
1/RT = 1/R1+1/R2+1/R3.......1/R15
Here R1=R2=R3=......R15 = 2.
Therefore 1/RT = 1/2+1/2+1/2+....1/2(for fifteen time).
Take common 1/2.
Now 1/RT = 1/2(1+1+1+1+1....1(for fifteen time).
1/RT = 1/2(15) = 15/2.
Therefore RT = 2/15 = 0.133Mohm.
Now convert Mohm into kohm.
So Ans. 133 kohm.
1/RT = 1/R1+1/R2+1/R3.......1/Rn.
Then RT for fifteen 2 Mohm
1/RT = 1/R1+1/R2+1/R3.......1/R15
Here R1=R2=R3=......R15 = 2.
Therefore 1/RT = 1/2+1/2+1/2+....1/2(for fifteen time).
Take common 1/2.
Now 1/RT = 1/2(1+1+1+1+1....1(for fifteen time).
1/RT = 1/2(15) = 15/2.
Therefore RT = 2/15 = 0.133Mohm.
Now convert Mohm into kohm.
So Ans. 133 kohm.

1/RT = 15/(2*10^6)
i.e RT=2*10^6/15
RT=133K
i.e RT=2*10^6/15
RT=133K
