The total resistance of a parallel circuit is 25 ohms. If the total current is 100mA, how much current is through a 220 ohm resistor that makes up part of the parallel circuit?

Answer:

The current across the resistance is 0.011 A.

Explanation:

Total resistance, R = 25 ohms

Total current, I = 100 mA = 0.1 A

Let the voltage is V.

By the Ohm's law

V = I R

V = 0.1 x 25 = 2.5 V

Now the resistance is R' = 220 ohm

As they are in parallel so the voltage is same. Let the current is I'.

V = I' x R'

2.5 = I' x 220

I' = 0.011 A
