Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the total current flowing in a circuit with three resistors in parallel, each carrying 2 A? (2021)
  • Step 1: Identify that the resistors are in parallel.
  • Step 2: Understand that in a parallel circuit, the total current is the sum of the currents through each resistor.
  • Step 3: Note that each resistor is carrying 2 A of current.
  • Step 4: Add the currents together: 2 A + 2 A + 2 A.
  • Step 5: Calculate the total: 2 A + 2 A + 2 A = 6 A.
