A parallel circuit is way of connecting components on separate branches, so the current can take different routes around the circuit. The current is different in different parts of a parallel circuit.

Understanding how to calculate resistance in a circuit is a key skill for anyone interested in electronics. Whether you’re an engineer, hobbyist, or student studying the subject, the ability to ...

Last month's column covered the behavior of electrical components connected in series and demonstrated that when a voltage is applied across a series circuit, the current through each component is the ...

A quick tool to calculate total resistance in a parallel circuit with up to 20 resistors. This is my first project using C++. I'm certain the code is horribly inefficient, but I'm not yet familiar ...
