In a parallel circuit dc circuit with two resistors, if you
know the voltage, amperage, and one resistors ohms, what
formula is used to find the second resistors ohms?

Answer Posted / shobana

Current Division Technique.

We know that Voltage in parrall will be same. Only current
will divide. As we know V, I(total), R1 we can use the
following formula:
I1 = (R2/R1+R2)* I(Total)
I2 = (R1/R1+R2)* I(Total)

I don't understand why when we connect high voltage source in DC to electronic motor , we must add capacitor and resistor in parallel ? (I know that we use capacitor because we want to absorb the current that in the first second electronic motor in opposed with current course produce. ) what are the feature of Resistor and in such situation ?
