Whats the effective resistance in a parallel and series circuit with a cell and two 12 ohms resistors ?

What do we know about parallel circuits- Total current is equal to sum of the current in the individual branches I_T = I₁ + I₂Component of each branch of a circuit share the same voltage as the cell V₁ = V₂ = V_TUsing ohms law V=IR, 1/R_T = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ What do we know about a series circuit -Current has the same value at any point in the circuit I_T = I₁ = I₂Emf of the cell is equal to the sum of the potential difference across each resistor V₁ + V₂ = V_TUsing Ohm's Law V = IR, R_T = R₁ + R₂ Draw a diagram to help us understand how current and voltage vary in circuitsCalculate effective resistance -For series 12 + 12 = 24 ohmsFor parallel 1/12 + 1/12 = 1/ R where R = 6 ohmsMake sure ans is given in correct unitsReflect on question - what was the issue? Why were you not able to ans the q? What did you forget?
