RESISTANCES IN PARALLEL
(27-21)
replaced the parallel combination with the
equivalent resistance Req.
(27-22)
Comparing Eqs. 27-21 and 27-22 leads to
(27-23)

for the case of two resistances, the
equivalent resistance is their product
divided by their sum; that is,
when two or more resistances are
connected in parallel, the equivalent
resistance is smaller than any of the
combining resistances.

CHECKPOINT 4
A battery, with potential V across it, is connected to a combination of two
identical resistors and then has current i through it. What are the potential
difference across and the current through either resistor if the resistors are
(a) in series and (b) in parallel?
(a) In series:
The potential difference across each resistor is equal to the total potential
difference divided by the number of resistors in series. Since there are two
resistors in series, the potential difference across each resistor is half of the
total potential difference. The current through each resistor is equal to the
total current divided by the number of resistors in series.

(b) In parallel:
The potential difference across each resistor is equal to the total
potential difference. The current through each resistor is equal to the
total current divided by the number of resistors in parallel. Since the
resistors are identical, the current through each resistor is equal.
