19. 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 ________.
(a) 12.5 Ω (b) 200 Ω (c) 20 KΩ (d) 50Ω
Answer
Answer : (c)
Explanation
Explanation : 10/(R/4) = 2 mA 40/R = 2 mA R = 40/2 mA = 40/0.002 A = 20000 kohm (20 kohm)
