APFIVE Equivalent Resistance After Component Removal
A circuit has a 12 V battery connected to a network of resistors. The equivalent resistance of the network is 4 Ω, and the power dissipated in a particular 6 Ω resistor is 12 W. If the 6 Ω resistor is removed from the circuit, what is the new equivalent resistance of the remaining network?
A
8 Ω
B
12 Ω
C
6 Ω
D
∞ (open circuit)
