Q. Two resistors of resistance $R_{1}$ and $R_{2}$ having $R_{1} > R_{2}$ are connected in parallel. For equivalent resistance $R,$ the correct statement is
A) $R > R_{1} + R_{2}$
B) $R_{1} < R < R_{2}$
C) $R_{2} < R < (R_{1} + R_{2})$
D) $R < R_{1}$
Explanation
(d) Equivalent resistance of parallel resistors is always less than any of the member of the resistance system
