Equivalent Resistance After Component Removal
A network of resistors with a total equivalent resistance of 4 Ω is connected to a 12 V battery. One resistor within the network has a resistance of 6 Ω and dissipates 12 W of power. If this 6 Ω resistor is removed, what is the new equivalent resistance of the network?
A
8 Ω
B
6 Ω
C
12 Ω
D
∞ (open circuit)
