Solution:

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 = 15/(2*10^6)

i.e RT=2*10^6/15

RT=133K

if n resistors each of value R are connected in parellel then equivalant resistance ic R/n...
