Question

8. Two resistors (110 Ω, 115 Ω) are connected in parallel with a 220-V supply. What is the total voltage?A. 55 V B. 110 V C. 220 V D. 330 V

Answer 1

ANSWER

$C.\text{ }220V$

EXPLANATION

We want to identify the total voltage for the resistors connected in parallel.

When resistors are connected in parallel, they have the same entry and exit points or junctions. This implies that each resistor has the same voltage as the voltage of the source applied to it.

In other words, the total voltage is:

$220V$

The correct answer is option C.
