Explanation / Answer

1) In a parallel circuit, voltage remains same. The current differs, getting divided among the different branches.

2) Can't find eqn I.

3) Yes they are equal. The relation between V(peak) and V(rms) is given by:

V(rms) = V(peak)/sqrt(2).

Hence, they are equal.

4) Voltage divider is any simple circuit which turns a large voltage into a smaller one. It can be as simple as two resistors connected in series with a battery, creating an output volatge which is a fraction of the input. The above circuit does the same and thus is called voltage divider.
