Question

Which of the following is not a characteristic of parallel combination of resistors?

Options

• If one resistor is fused, the circuit does not become open.

• The total resistance R is given by the formula `1/"R" = 1/"R"_1 + 1/"R"_2 + 1/"R"_3 ...`

• The total resistance becomes less than the least resistor, present in the combination.

• The current through each resistor always remains the same.

Answer 1

The current through each resistor always remains the same.
