Homework Statement
2. Homework Equations [/B]
Hi! So I was given the following circuit with R=15k
I was asked to calculate the equivalent resistance between A and B.
The Attempt at a Solution
[/B]
According to my professor this circuit is equivalent to a circuit with three resistors in parallel, so the resistance is the parallel of the 3 resistances R (= 5k).
However I don't understand how it is equivalent.
My professor explanation was that no matter what pad we choose for a current it will pass only through a resistor (which I totally understand why!). However I don't see how that means mathematically that they are in parallel. Can someone help me clarify it?.
Thanks!
