Compute the equivalent resistance of $(a) 3.0 \Omega, 6.0 \Omega$, and $9.0 \Omega$ in parallel; (b) $3.0 \Omega, 4.0 \Omega, 7.0 \Omega, 10.0 \Omega$, and $12.0 \Omega$ in parallel; (c) three 33-\Omega heating elements in parallel; $(d$ ) twenty $100-\Omega$ lamps in parallel.
Three resistors in parallel have an equivalent resistance of $5.0 \Omega .$ Two of the resistors have resistances of $10 \Omega$ and $30 \Omega$. What is the resistance of the third resistor?
Three equal resistors, each equal to $R$, are connected as shown in the following figure; then the equivalent resistance between points $A$ and $B$ is (a) $R$ (b) $3 R$ (c) $R / 3$ (d) $2 R / 3$
