Question

Three 44-ohm resistors are connected in parallel with an ideal 12-volt battery. What is the equivalent resistance of the circuit?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1/Rtotal = 1/r1 +1/r2 +1/r3

1/Rtotal = 1/44 + 1/44 + 1/44

1/Rtotal = 3 /44

1/Rtotal = 0.0681818182

1/0.0681818182 = Rtotal

14.66666666666666666 = Rtotal

14
`(2)/(3)` ohms = Rtotal
