The video tutorial explains how to calculate the current in parallel circuits using Ohm's Law. It begins with a simple example of a circuit with two resistors and a 12-volt battery, demonstrating how to find the current through each resistor and the total current. The tutorial then progresses to a more complex example with three resistors and a 30-volt battery, using the same principles. Finally, it covers a conceptual approach to understanding current distribution in parallel circuits and derives a formula for calculating current in such circuits.
