Parallel Circuit is a circuit that is connected in parallel. All components in parallel circuit are linked to the same set of electric points, and they can create several branches(individual paths) within a circuit. These individual paths provide multiple pathways to the charge, so whenever the charge encounters a branch it would travel to the lower potential.

The Main Idea
Parallel Circuit is a circuit that is connected in parallel. All components in parallel circuit are linked to the same set of electric points, and they can create several branches(individual paths) within a circuit. These individual paths provide multiple pathways to the charge, so whenever the charge encounters a branch it would travel to the lower potential. Thus, adding additional resistor in a parallel circuit would result in a decreased resistance.
A Mathematical Model
What are the mathematical equations that allow us to model this topic. For example [math]\displaystyle{ {\frac{d\vec{p}}{dt}}_{system} = \vec{F}_{net} }[/math] where p is the momentum of the system and F is the net force from the surroundings.
