This problem is intended to help you build up some intuition about resistors in
parallel and should be done without a calculator. The questions below refer to
the following two circuits:
If R1=R2=118Ω, for what value of R3 (in Ohms) will is1=is2?
R3=
If R1=136Ω, and R2=10KΩ, for approximately what
value of R3 (in Ohms) will is1=is2?
R3=
If R1=166Ω, and R2=1Ω, for approximately what
value of R3 (in Ohms) will is1=is2?
