Answer:
Explanation:
It is observed that the total current I, is equal to the sum of the separate currents through each branch of the combination.
I + I1 + I2 + I3
Let Rp be the equivalent resistance of the parallel combination of resistors. By applying Ohm's law to the parallel combination of resistors, we have
I = V/Rp
On applying Ohm's law to each resistor, we have
I1 = V/R1 ; I2 = V/R2; and I3 + V/R3
From eqns. we have
V/Rp = V/R1 + V/R2 + V/R3
or 1/Rp = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3
Thus, we may conclude that the reciprocal of the equivalent resistance of a group of resistances joined in parallel is equal to the sum of the reciprocals of the individuals resistances.
