Parallel Circuits - Technical MCQs

Q1:

The total power dissipated is 4.8 watts.

A True

B False

ANS:B - False

Current through 1000 Ohms = 48/1000 = 0.048.
Current through 3000 Ohms = 48/3000 = 0.016.
Current through 5000 Ohms = 48/5000 = 0.0096.
Current through 8000 Ohms = 48/8000 = 0.006.

If All current is add so this total current is 0.0796.
