Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have three resistors in parallel: 15 Ω, 30 Ω, and 45 Ω. Calculate the equivalent resistance and determine how much current is drawn from a 60 V source.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Start by finding the reciprocal of each resistance and then simplify.

Question 2

A circuit contains three resistors connected in parallel, and you know the equivalent resistance is 12 Ω. If one of the resistors is 36 Ω, find the equivalent resistance of the other two resistors.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use algebraic manipulation of the formula.
