Resistors in Parallel

Electrical Circuits

When the resistors are the connected.In this combination voltage is same and current through the various resistors are different.

RESISTORS IN PARALLEL

When the resistors are the connected as in fig 1.14 shows the parallel combination.


If one end of all the resistors is joined to a common point and the other ends are joined to another common point, the combination is said to be parallel combination between two common points.

In this combination voltage is same and current through the various resistors are different.

Here 

I = I1 + I2 + I3


If we replace the three resistors in parallel by a single equivalent resistor R as shown in fig 1.15.


In fig 1.15

V = IReff


If only two resistors in parallel, then the effective resistance is given by


In a parallel circuit:

(i) The voltage across each resistances of the parallel circuit is the same.

(ii) The current in each branch is given by ohm's law.

(ii) The total current is equal to the sum of branch currents.
