If three inductors are connected in parallel, then which of the following is correct?
Question

If three inductors are connected in parallel, then which of the following is correct?

A.

Power across all the inductors will be same

B.

Thermal loss across all the inductors will be same

C.

Current across all the inductors will be same

D.

Voltage across all the inductors will be same

Correct option is D


Explanation:
· Voltage Across Inductors in Parallel: In a parallel circuit, all components share the same voltage across them. Therefore, the voltage across each of the inductors connected in parallel will be the same.
· Power Across Inductors: The power consumed by each inductor can differ because power is a function of both the current through the inductor and the voltage across it (P = VI). Since the currents may differ, the power will not necessarily be the same.
· Thermal Loss Across Inductors: Thermal losses, which are primarily resistive losses (I²R), will depend on the current flowing through each inductor, which can vary, so the thermal loss will not be the same across all inductors.
· Current Across Inductors: In a parallel connection, the total current divides among the inductors according to their individual impedances. Thus, the current through each inductor can be different.
