Choose the correct answer and show detailed solution:

8. Two identical resistors connected in parallel have an equivalent resistance of 10 2. If the resistors were connected in series, their equivalent resistance would be 0 20 0 0 40 0 0 30Q 0 50 0 9. A 10 Q resistor and a 30 2 resistor are connected in parallel to a battery. If the 10 2 resistor produces heat at the rate P, what is the rate at which heat is produced in the 30 2 resistor? 0 6P 3P O P/2 O P/3 10. A resistor of unknown resistance is in parallel with a 6 92 resistor. A 12 V battery is connected across the combination and provides a current of 6 A. Determine the unknown resistance. 0 24 0
