Three Resistors Connected in Parallel Have the Individual Voltages Labeled $\Delta$

question 67

Multiple Choice

Three resistors connected in parallel have the individual voltages labeled $\Delta$ V₁, $\Delta$ V₂, and $\Delta$ V₃, respectively. Which of the following expresses the total voltage $\Delta$ V_T across the three resistors when connected in this manner?

• A) "\(\Delta\)V_T = (1/\(\Delta\)V₁ + 1/\(\Delta\)V₂ + 1/\(\Delta\)V₃)"
• B) "\(\Delta\)V_T = \(\Delta\)V₁ + \(\Delta\)V₂ + \(\Delta\)V₃"
• C) "\(\Delta\)V_T = (1/\(\Delta\)V₁ + 1/\(\Delta\)V₂ + 1/\(\Delta\)V₃) ^{- 1}"
• D) "\(\Delta\)V_T = \(\Delta\)V₁ = \(\Delta\)V₂ = \(\Delta\)V₃"
