Consider the following statements regarding the network shown in the figure.

(I) The equivalent resistance of the network between points A and B is independent of value of G.
(II) The equivalent resistance of the network between points A and B is
.
(III) The current through G is zero.
Which of the above statements is/are true?
Text Solution

As
, hence the given network is a balanced Wheatstone bridge. Therefore, no current flows through G, so equivalent circuit diagram as shown in the figure.

Hence, the equivalent resistance of the network between points A and B is
