Question

In a parallel circuit, ET = 120 V, R = 30 Ω, and XL = 40 Ω. What is IR?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Given

ET = 120 V

, R = 30 Ω,

XL = 40 Ω.

To find = IR=?

as in circuit inductor and resistor are parallel so ET =EL = ER = 120V

IR = current through resistor = IR = ER/ R

= 120V /30Ω.

= 4 ampere.
