$R_{2}$

$\Rightarrow P_{1} = (\frac{4}{3} - 1) (\frac{1}{\infty} - \frac{1}{- | R_{1} |})$

$\Rightarrow P_{1} = (\frac{1}{3 | R_{1} |})$

$\Rightarrow P_{2} = (\frac{1}{2}) (\frac{1}{- | R_{1} |} - \frac{1}{- | R_{2} |})$

$\Rightarrow P_{2} = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{| R_{2} |} - \frac{1}{| R_{1} |})$

$\Rightarrow P_{3} = (\frac{1}{3}) (\frac{1}{- | R_{2} |} - \frac{1}{\infty}) = - \frac{1}{3 | R_{2} |}$

$\Rightarrow P_{e q} = \frac{1}{3} (\frac{1}{| R_{1} |} - \frac{1}{| R_{2} |}) - \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{| R_{1} |} - \frac{1}{| R_{2} |})$

$= - \frac{1}{6} (\frac{1}{| R_{1} |} - \frac{1}{| R_{2} |})$
