An electric lamp of 100 Ω, a toaster of resistance 50 Ω, and a water filter of resistance 500 Ω are connected in parallel to a 220 V source. What is the resistance of an electric iron connected to the same source that takes as must current as all three appliances and what is the current through it?

- Resistance of an electric iron.
- The flow of electric current through the electric iron.
- The three resistors are connected in parallel as shown in the below figure.
❥Given parameters:
- Resistance of electric lamp (R1) = 100 Ω
- Resistance of toaster (R2) = 50 Ω
- Resistance of water filter (R3) = 500 Ω
- Potential difference of the source (V) = 220 V.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
- Total resistance (R) can be calculated as shown below.
1/R = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + 1/R₃
1/R = 1/100 + 1/50 + 1/500
1/R = ( 5 + 10 + 1 )/500
1/R = 16/500
500/16 = R
Total Resistance (R) = 500/16 Ω
R = 31.25 Ω
2. According to ohm’s law the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points.
V ∝ I or V = IR
➯R is constant called resistance.
R = V/I
500/16 = 220/I
I = 220 × (16/500)
I = 7.04 A
- Therefore, the resistance of the electric iron is 31.25 Ω and the current flowing through it is 7.04 A.
