Question

Let there be four different resistors : W, X, Y , and Z . How many different electrical circuit arrangements involving all the four resistors are possible?  

Expert Solution
Step 1

Since there are four resistors here named as W, X, Y , and Z.

Now,We know that the probability for 4 combination of resistors is 4!

hence, total different electrical circuit arrangements involving all the four resistors are possible is as below.

 4!= 4× 3×2×1= 24
