If two parallel-connected resistors dissipate 6 watts and 10 watts of power, then what is the total power loss?

  1. 60 W

  2. 0.6 W

  3. 16 W

  4. 1.66 W

  5. 166 W

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

TOTAL POWER P = v^2*(R1+R2/R1*R2)  = V^2/R2+V^2/R1  = P1+P2  = 16W
