Three identical resistors are connected in parallel to a battery. If the current of 12 A flows from the battery, how much current flows through any one of the resistors

Two resistors have resistances R(smaller) and R(larger), where R(smaller)

Three resistors of resistances 4.0 Ω, 6.0 Ω, and 10 Ω are connected in parallel. If this combination is now connected in series with an ideal 12-V battery and a 2.0-Ω resistor, what is the current through the 10-Ω resistor?

A defibrillator is designed to pass a large current through a patient’s torso in order to stop dangerous heart rhythms. Its key part is a capacitor that is charged to a high voltage. The patient’s torso plays the role of a resistor in an RC circuit. When a switch is closed, the capacitor discharges through the patient’s torso. A jolt from a defibrillator is intended to be intense and rapid; the maximum current is very large, so the capacitor discharges quickly. This rapid pulse depolarizes the heart, stopping all electrical activity. This allows the heart’s internal nerve circuitry to reestablish a healthy rhythm.A typical defibrillator has a 32 μF capacitor charged to 5000 V. The electrodes connected to the patient are coated with a conducting gel that reduces the resistance of the skin to where the effective resistance of the patient’s torso is 100 Ω. Which pair of graphs shown best represents the capacitor voltage and the current through the torso as a function of time after the…
