Two resistors R1 and R2 are in parallel with each other. Together they carry total current I.
Question:
(a) Determine the current in each resistor.
(b) Prove that this division of the total current I between the two resistors results in less power delivered to the combination than any other division. It is a general principle that current in a direct current circuit distributes itself so that the total power delivered to the circuit is a minimum.
