Question 4

A student investigates how the number of identical resistors connected in parallel affects the total current in a circuit. The potential difference across the parallel combination is kept constant. The table shows the student's results:

Number of resistorsTotal current in mAPotential difference in V
115.012.00
230.012.00
345.012.00
460.012.00

Using data from the table, calculate the resistance of only 1 resistor.
