the equivalent resistance and the current divider rule for parallel connection of resistors. Let’s consider this circuit: In circuit 1 we have two resistors R1 and R2 connected in parallel and in ...

their equivalent resistance is their value divided by the number in of parallel resistors. Break the circuit down into small pairs of series/parallel resistors to tally up the final equivalent ...

We examine how to find the total voltage, current and resistance of parallel and complex circuits. We also use a V.I.R. chart to find these things across individual resistors within a circuit.

In this circuit the following applies. When resistors are connected in parallel, the supply current is equal to the sum of the currents through each resistor. The currents in the branches of a ...
