Solution to Frame 79
FRAME 80
So far you have learned that:
a. A parallel circuit has ________________ for current to
flow.
b. Rt for a parallel circuit = ___________________.
1
=
1 + 1 + 2
40 40 40
c. You can check on any Rt you compute because the Rt in
a parallel circuit must be (more/less) than the
(largest/\/smallest) resistor.

d. An equivalent circuit is a (series/parallel) circuit with the
40
same _________ and _________ as a parallel circuit.
