A16-ω loudspeaker, an 8.0-ω loudspeaker, and a 4.0-ω loudspeaker are connected in parallel across the terminals of an amplifier. determine the equivalent resistance of the three speakers, assuming that they all behave as resistors.

2.286 ohm

Explanation:

R1 = 16 ohm

R2 = 8 ohm

R3 = 4 ohm

They all are connected in parallel combination

Let the equivalent resistance is R.

1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3

1/R = 1/16 + 1/8 + 1/4

1/R = (1 + 2 + 4) / 16

1/R = 7 / 16

R = 16/7 = 2.286 ohm
