Question

A circuit contains three resistors connected in parallel. The value of R1 is 2 K , the value or R2 is 6 K , and the value of R3 is 10 K . If the supplied voltage is 100 VDC, what is the total power in the circuit

Answer 1

7.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

In a parallel connection, the voltage is same in every branch.
Now, three three resistors connected in parallel.
R1 = 2k ohm
R2 = 6k ohm
R3 = 10k ohm
in parallel, net resisitance =
`( R_(1)R_(2)R_(3) )/(R_(1)R_(2) + R_(2)R_(3) + R_(3)R_(1))`

Now, putting the values, we get, R net = 1.30 k ohm.
Ans, voltage = 100 VDC
Thus, power =

= 7.69 Watt
