In a parallel RL circuit, there are 3 A rms in the resistive branch and 3 A rms in the inductive branch. The total rms current is

                He ask about I total in rms on in I max.
The answer is A.
                The answer is A.

                (3)2 + (3)2 = 18,  √18 = 4.2.

                Since the given current values are in RMS and the total current to be found in RMS then the total current will be 6 A.
Why are you doing it for max value?

                Irms = √(√(i1rms)+ √(i2rms))              Because i1rms=i2rms=3amps.
Irms = √(2√(irms)),
Irms = √(2)*irms,
Irms = 1.414*3 = 4.2a.
                Irms = √(2√(irms)),
Irms = √(2)*irms,
Irms = 1.414*3 = 4.2a.
