Applying Kirchhoff’s Junction Rule, what happens to the power source and current when the parallel circuit has two branches, each with a resistor, R? In one to two sentences, answer the question and explain your reasoning.
In a parallel circuit with two branches, the power source supplies the total current, which then splits between the two branches based on their resistance. Both branches will have the same voltage across them, but the current through each branch will differ based on the resistance of each branch.
