Q)

Read the following passage and answer the question given below <br><br> A parallel circuit divides the current in various components (appliances) and each component can draw current as per its appropriate operation. Separate on/off switch can be put with each component in parallel circuit. Moreover, total resistance in parallel circuit arrangement decreases and hence a stronger current can be drawn from a voltage source. In parallel combination, the equivalent resistance is lesser than the least of all the resistance. Connecting a number of resistors in parallel is like providing an equal number of paths, for the electron flow which results in a decrease in resistance. <br><br> Question : Two resistors of different resistances are to be connected to a battery so as to obtain a minimum current, then the mode of connecting the resistances is

$\begin{array}{1 1} (a)\; \text{parallel} \\ (2)\; \text{series } \\ (3)\; \text{neither series nor parallel} \\ (d)\; \text{none of the above} \end{array}$
