Question

Several resistors are connected in parallel. Which of the following statements are true of the corresponding equivalent resistance? (Select all that apply.)

- It is less than the resistance of any of the individual resistors.

- It is dependent on the voltage applied across the series.

- It is greater than the resistance of any of the individual resistors.

- It is equal to the reciprocal of the sum of the inverses of the resistances of all the resistors.

- It is equal to the sum of the resistances of all the resistors in the series.

Explanation / Answer

The correct statements are:

It is less than the resistance of any of the individual resistors.

It is equal to the reciprocal of the sum of the inverses of the resistances of all the resistors.
