Question

the combination is connected to a 14 v battery whose internal resistance is negligible


OEEP4 13E 12 Three identical resistances, each 12 0, are connectod in parallel with one another as shown balow. The combinatios is connected is negligible. )What is the equivalent resistance of this nuralied combination? b) What is the total curent through ths combination? (c) How much current flows through éach redistor in the combiristion? 18 s1 resistor has a voltage arrarence vaeoesta let A 18 st reaistor has a voltage afrerence

Explanation / Answer

here

R = 12 ohm

V = 14 v

resistors in parallel

Req = 1 / ( 1 / 12 + 1 / 12 + 1/12)

Req = 4 ohm

b)

then by using ohms law

V = I * Req

I = 14 / 4

I = 3.5 amp

c)

then the current for every resistor

I1 = V / R1

I1 = 14 / 12

I1 = 1.166 amp

the current I1 = I2 = I3 = 1.166 amp
