Answer:
Electronic current is always in opposite direction to conventional current.
- When both the bodies are positively charged and are in contact the body having more +ve charge is at higher potential conventional current from A to B + 100 > + 70 from higher potential to lover potential.
∴ Electronic current from B to A.
- When both A and b negative charge conventional current: from higher potential (—70) to lower potential (—100) i.e. from B to A electronic current: from A to B.

(i) in PARALLEL :
Let three resistors are connect in such away that one end of each R1, R2, R3 is connected at a common terminal (X) and the other end of each at common terminal (Y) through a battery. So that potential difference of each resistor is V and current I at X divides itself and I1, I2 and I3 flows through R,, R, and R3 respectively and again combine at y and current I flows further.
I = I1 + I2 + I3 …(i) we know that
EQUIVALENT or RESULTANT resistance of parallel conductors
The reciprocal of EQUIVALENT RESISTANCE is equal to the sum of the reciprocals of individual resistors.
EQUIVALENT RESISTANCE OF RESISTORS In (ii)
Let three resistors R1, R2, and R3, be connected in series i.e. resistors are joined one after the other as shown and same current I passes through each and each resistors has potential difference say V,, V, and V3 so that total p.d. between A and D terminals is V
V = V1 + V2 + V3 …(i) V = IR
IR = I R1 + IR2 + IR3 V1 = IR1
IR = I[R1 + R2 + R3] V2 = IR2
V3 = IR3 put in (i)
R = R1 + R2 + R3
i. e. EQUIVALENT RESISTANCE of resistors in series is the sum of their individual resistance.
Question 9.

To derive relation for resultant resistance of three resistances in parallel, consider three resistances
- r1, r2, r3 One end of each is connected to common terminal X and other end of each at common terminaly.
