In parallel, neither resistor knows about the other one, and they have no effect on each other.
Each resistor is connected straight to the battery terminals. If the battery is hefty enough, it supplies current to each resistor as if the other one weren't there.
Current through a resistor = (voltage across it) / (its resistance).
Current = (20 V) / (40 ohms)
Current = 1/2 Ampere.
The sun always shines directly overhead at noon. This is because the equator always gets the equivalent amount of sunlight. The area always get 12 hours of sunlight, because it's 0 degrees north and south and it's at the center of the Earth.
<span>Water in the oceans may become fresh water available to humans through the processes of evaporation, condensation and precipitation.
In these processes, water is heated to a very high temperature until it evaporates in order to kill the germs and remove the salts which remains after water evaporation. The next step in condensing the water vapor (which is now fresh) and precipitating this vapor to be used by humans.</span>
A control group in a scientific experiment is a group separated from the rest of the experiment, where the independent variable being tested cannot influence the results. This isolates the independent variable 's effects on the experiment and can help rule out alternative explanations of the experimental results.

At the Earth's surface, warm air expands and rises, creating
what is known as an area of low pressure.
Cold air is dense and sinks to the surface to create what is
known as an area of high pressure.</span>
