For a parallel circuit with two resistors, the total resistance is calculated from the expression:
1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2
We are given the total resistance, R, which is 20 ohms and R2 which is 75 ohms. We calculate R1 as follows:
1/20 = 1/R1 + 1/75
1/R1 = 11/300
R1 = 27.27 ohms
1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2
We are given the total resistance, R, which is 20 ohms and R2 which is 75 ohms. We calculate R1 as follows:
1/20 = 1/R1 + 1/75
1/R1 = 11/300
R1 = 27.27 ohms
