In a parallel circuit, ET = 120 V, R = 30 Ω, and XL = 40 Ω. What is IR?

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

ET = 120 V

, R = 30 Ω,

XL = 40 Ω.

To find = IR=?

as in circuit inductor and resistor are parallel so ET = EL = ER = 120V

IR = current through resistor = IR = ER / R

= 120V / 30Ω.

= 4 ampere.
