Exercise : Parallel Circuits - General Questions
11.
A 470 resistor, a 220 resistor, and a 100 resistor are all in parallel. The total resistance is approximately
790
470
60
30
Answer: Option
Explanation:
1/R = (1/470 + 1/220 + 1/100)

R = 59.98 ohm

12.

13.
Four resistors of equal value are connected in parallel. If the total voltage is 15 V and the total resistance is 600 , the current through each parallel resistor is
25 mA
100 mA
6.25 mA
200 mA
Answer: Option
Explanation:

14.
Five 100 resistors are connected in parallel. If one resistor is removed, the total resistance is
25
500
100
20
Answer: Option
Explanation:
1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 + 1/R4

1/R = 1/100 + 1/100 + 100 + 1/100

1/R = 4/100

1/R = 1/25

Therefore R = 25 ohm.
