Learning Objectives
In parallel combination of resistances, voltage across each resistance is same i.e all resistances are directly connected to voltage source.
The current from each resistance depends upon the value of resistance
The equivalent resistance is always less than the largest resistance in combination
Theory
Formulae
Equivalent resistance $$ \frac{1}{R_{e}}= \frac{1}{R_{1}} + \frac{1}{R_{2}} + \frac{1}{R_{3}} \cdot , \cdot , \cdot , \cdot + \frac{1}{R_{n}} $$
