5. A circuit is set up with two parallel resistors, each of a resistance of 250Ω.


a. What is the total resistance for this circuit?

b. If another resistor of resistance 300Ω is added in series with these


two parallel resistors, what is the total resistance?

c. If a voltage of 120V is put across the circuit in b, what will the current
be in the circuit?
