If they're in parallel, then each resistor acts as if it were the only one,and the presence of any others is irrelevant.The current through the 60-ohm resistor is I = E/R = (120/60) = 2 amperes.
If they're in parallel, then the resistors have no effect on each other. The current through each one is the same as it would be if the others were not there at all. The current through the 120Ω resistor is 120 volts/120Ω = 1 Ampere. The 60Ω and the 40Ω are red herring resistors.
The current through the 40-ohm resistor is ( E / R ) = (120 / 40) = 3 amperes.The current through the 40-ohm resistor doesn't depend on the 120-ohm resistor. It's the samewhether the 120-ohm is there or not. It would also be the same if there were any other resistor,with any other resistance, connected in place of the 120-ohm resistor. It would also be the sameif there were 3,000 more resistors in parallel, with all different values of resistance (as long asthe whole conglomeration didn't exceed the capabilities of the power source).

What is the current running through resistor four?1 amps..!What is the current running through resistor one? 3 amps...!What is the current running through resistor three? 2amps..!What is the current running through resistor five? 3 amps..!What is the voltage drop running through resistor five? 45 volts...!What is the equivalent resistance through the parallel portion of the circuit? 6 ohmsAnswerA resistor is a conductor, albeit one with a higher resistance than a length of wire, so current passes through it without any problem. The magnitude of the current will, of course, be somewhat lower because of the additional resistance.

E/R=I. 100/50=2 amps.

The Capacitor with running winding is connected in parallel with main winding.
Resistors do that when there's a current running through them.

Two toy electric trains running on the same track are connected in parallel because they both get energized from DC impressed across the two rails they ride on.
