Answer:
(a). Total resistance of the circuit R = 133.43 ohm
(b). Current I = 0.9 A
(c). Current in each resistor
= 0.214 A ,
= 0.315 A &
= 0.369 A
(d). Power dissipated through the circuit is P = 108 W
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
= 560 ohm
= 380 ohm
= 325 ohm
Voltage V = 120 V
(a).Total resistance of the circuit in case of parallel circuit is given by
R = 133.43 ohm
(b). We know that from ohm's law
Voltage V = I R
120 = I × 133.43
I = 0.9 A
This is the value of current in the circuit.
(c). Current in resistor one
= 0.214 A
Current in second resistor
= 0.315 A
Current in third resistor
= 0.369 A
(d). Power dissipated through the circuit is given by
P = V I
P = 120 × 0.9
P = 108 W
