You have five different resistors, each with a unique resistance constant. Which of the following schemes should you use to connect the resistors in such a way to produce the largest equivalent resistance possible? Simply use the single resistor with the highest resistance O Simply use the single resistor with the lowest resistance Connect all five in series Connect all five in parallel Use a combination of the two with the highest resistances in series, then connected to the resistor with the lowest resistance value in parallel Use a combination of the two with the highest resistances in parallel, then connected to the resistor with the lowest resistance value in series O Cannot be determined without knowing the individual resistances
