Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a parallel RL circuit, the total current is the vector sum of the resistive and inductive currents. Since they are perpendicular, the total current is calculated using the Pythagorean theorem: √(2^2 + 2^2) = √8 = 2.83 A.

If the Resistive Current Is 2 a and the Inductive
