No, all resistances in series connections are not the same. Different value resistances can be series together. The results of the resistances in series are always the same, they are additive.

What is a combination circuit?

It was mentioned that there are two different ways to connect two or more electrical devices together in a circuit. They can be connected by means of series connections or by means of parallel connections. When all the devices in a circuit are connected by series connections, then the circuit is referred to as a series circuit. When all the devices in a circuit are connected by parallel connections, then the circuit is referred to as a parallel circuit. A third type of circuit involves the dual use of series and parallel connections in a circuit; such circuits are referred to as compound circuits or combination circuits. The circuit depicted at the right is an example of the use of both series and parallel connections within the same circuit. In this case, light bulbs A and B are connected by parallel connections and light bulbs C and D are connected by series connections.

What are the advantages of a series circuits?

Series circuits are easy to logically comprehend and SUPER-easy to model mathematically. For example, the total resistance and inductance of a series circuit can be very closely approximated by simply adding up the resistances and inductances of the individual components of the circuit (mutual inductance and temperature dependence throw a slight wrinkle in having this approximation being exact). Also, since all nodes in a series circuit have only one input and one output, we know by Kirchhoff's current law that the current going through the circuit is the same everywhere at any given time.


How a current limit starter works for an electric motor?

it consists of a series of resistances, a magnet and a bar that is pulled by the magnet. Initially all the resistance comes in series so the current is limited. when the bar is pulled towards the magnet slowly the resistance decreases and the current increases. thus it protects the DC motor from initial high current.

What is a seiries circuit?

Series CircuitWe say Resistances are in series if the same current flows through all Resistances. A circuit containing of only series resistances is called a series circuit. A series circuit is a circuit that has the same intensity of current flow through its elements.


What term remains the same across all the resistances in a parallel combination of resistances?

The voltage across the resistors will remain constant.


Total amperage in a series circuit?

Voltage divided by total resistance will give the current. The resistance is simply the sum of all the individual resistances.


What is the totalresistance in a curcuit that contains three 60 ohms resistors connected in a series?

In a series circuit, just add all the individual resistances, to get the total resistance.


What is the current of a series-parallel circuit connection?

The current flowing through a series circuit is (voltage between the circuit's ends) / (sum of all resistances in the circuit). The current is the same at every point in the series circuit.

Does a 2001 s10 have a different size input for r134a?

All r134a low pressure (suction) connections are the same size. All high pressure connections are the same size. The low and high connections do not interchange.

What is a solution of series circuits?

All the volt drops across each component in the series circuit will add up to the emf of the battery or power supply. Note the voltage supplying the circuit and divide it by the sum of all the resistances in the circuit. This gives you the current which is the same through all components. Take a component's resistance and multiply by the current and you have the voltage drop across it.


What happens to voltage in a series circuit?

Total voltage = the source. The voltage around the circuit is divided proportionally by each of the resistances in line. The current is = the source voltage divided by the sum of all the resistance.


What is true about series connections of resistors?

The more resistance there is, the harder it is for current to flow. So the total resistance is the sum of all resistors in series.
