The formula for the total resistance $R_{T}$ of two resistors $R_{1}$ and $R_{2}$ connected in parallel is given by $\frac{1}{R _{T}} = \frac{1}{R _{1}} + \frac{1}{R _{2}}$ . Which of the following correctly expresses $R_{T}$ in terms of $R_{1}$ and $R_{2}$ ?

A.

$R_{T} = R_{1} + R_{2}$

B.

$R_{T} = \frac{R _{1} R _{2}}{R _{1} + R _{2}}$

C.

$R_{T} = \frac{R _{1} + R _{2}}{R _{1} R _{2}}$

D.

$R_{T} = R_{1} R_{2}$
