CBSE Class 10 Answered
Practically, how does a parallel connection of resistors help in reducing the effective resistance and increase the current flowing through it?

Expert Answer
When the resistors are in parallel, the effective resistance is given by:
1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 , say if the R1 and R2 are the resistors.
We know that I, current is inversely proportional to resistance.
So, if R is very small, the current would be highest.
If the R is high, this would not allow current to flow through it.
