If \(R_{s}\) and \(R_{p}\) are the equivalent resistances of \(n\) resistors, each of value \(R\) , in series and parallel combinations respectively, then the value of ( \(R_{s}-R_{p}\) ) is:
- \(\left(\frac{{n}^{2}-1}{{n}^{2}}\right) {R}\)
- \(\left(\frac{{n}^{2}+1}{{n}^{2}-1}\right) {R}\)
- \(\left(\frac{{n}^{2}-1}{{n}}\right) {R}\)
- \(\frac{\left({n}^{2}+1\right) {R}}{{n}^{2}}\)
Answer
(A) ( n ^ 2 -1 n ^ 2 ) R
