Parallel resistance
Storyboard
When the resistors are connected in parallel, they are all exposed to the same potential difference which, by Ohm's law, generates different currents. The total current is the sum of the partial currents, so the total resistance is the inverse of the sum of the inverse of the individual resistances.
