  • A A 300Ω resistor is connected to it in parallel
  • B An 80Ω resistor is conneceted to it in series
  • C A 150Ω resistor is connected to it in parallel
  • D A 240Ω resistor is connected to it in series
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation:
For parallel resistance,
\(\frac{300 \times 200}{500}\)
\(= 120 \Omega \)
Therefore it is when a 300Ω resistor is connected to it in parallel
