Questions  In your own words, describe what a Parallel Circuit is.  If I have 3 Resistors, 1 on all 3 paths, how do you find the Total Resistance in the circuit (R Total )?  Given Voltage and R Total, how can I find Current?  True or False. The Total current flowing from the battery source is equal to the sum of the currents flowing through each path

Show me with Calculation  Find Total Resistance in Parallel Circuit  Find Current in this Circuit from Battery Source R1 =3 R1 =5 R1 =7 6V 12V
