  • Question

  • Four equal-value resistors are connected in parallel. Ten volts are applied across the parallel circuit and 2 mA are measured from the source. The value of each resistor is


  • Options
  • A. 12.5 Ω
  • B. 200 Ω
  • C. 20 KΩ
  • D. 50 Ω

  • Correct Answer
  • 20 KΩ 

    Explanation
    10/(R/4) = 2 mA

    40/R = 2 mA

    R = 40/2 mA

    = 40/0.002 A

    = 20000 kohm (20 kohm)
