Answer:
17 ohms
Explanation:
Given that,
In a series circuit there are 17 light bulbs, each providing 1 ohm of resistance.
We need to find the total resistance of the circuit.
The equivalent resistance for series combination is given by :
[tex]R_{eq}=R_1+R_2+....[/tex]
For 17 light bulbs, the equivalent resistance is given by :
[tex]R_{eq}=R+R+....\text{upto 17 terms}\\\\R_{eq}=17R\\\\=17[/tex]
Hence, the total resistance is 17 ohms. Hence, the correct option is (d).
