Does the equivalent resistance in parallel circuit more or less than the resistance of any of the individual resistors

Open in App
Solution

Dear Student,

In case of parallel connection of resistors the equivalent resistance is smaller than the individual resisters. Since we add the inverse of each resistor value and equate with the inverse of their equivalent resistance.
