Question

A 24V potential difference is applied
across a parallel combination of four 6
ohm resistors. The current in each
resistor is​

Answer 1

Answer:

4 A

Explanation:

since the resistor is applied in parallel combination the voltage across each resistor is same

Answer 2

Answer:

The current in each case is 4A

Explanation:

Given the applied potential difference, V  = 24 V.

Four resistances of each resistor, = 6 ohm.

The resistors are connected in parallel, so equvivilant resistance is

As the resistors are connected in parallel,the voltage across each resistor is same.

Therefore total current,

i = 16 A.

Hence, current through each resistor = 16 A/ 4 = 4 A.

Thus, the current in each resistor is  4 A.
