Parallel 01 Due in 17 hours, 34 minutes The figure shows two resistors in parallel. Ri=15.9 2 and Ra=33.0 2. FR R2 What is the equivalent resistance of the two combined resistors? 48.9 ohms But these resistors are in parallel, not series. Go back and take a look at the text. Don't forget to invert your value one last time. You've answered with 1/R, not R. Submit Answer Incorrect. Tries 1/10 Previous Tries In this case, when finding the total current flowing from the battery, you need to consider the overall, or equivalent, resistance of the circuit. Suppose the voltage source provides a potential difference (voltage difference) of 6.26 V. What is the total current flowing from the battery? Submit Answer Tries 0/10 These two resistors are in parallel. First, stop and trace the current flowing from the battery through the complete circuit. Is there anywhere that it splits or recombines7 Second, you need to remind yourself that in this case the voltage across each resistor is the same as the voltage source. Now, what is the current flowing through resistor Ri? Submit Answer Tries 0/10 What is the current flowing through resistor Rz? Submit Answer Tries 0/10
