The two resistors in series have an effective resistance given by the formula
Reff = R1 + R2
therefore
Reff = 30 + 30 = 60 ohms
V = IReff
I = 40/60 = 2/3 (or 0.67) A

Three identical resistors each 45 ohms are connected in parallel across a 60-V battery The current through or drawn from the battery is?
If 3 identical 45-ohm resistors are connected in parallel, the net effective resistance of the bunch ...and the load seen by the battery ... is 15 ohms. The current supplied by the battery is60/15 = 4 Amperes.(This assumes that the battery is capable of supplying 4 amps at 60 volts, or 240 watts !)
6 equal resistors of 1 ohm each are connected to form the sides of a hexagon ABCDEF calculate the resistance offered by the combination if the current enters at A and leaves at D?
1.5 ohms. Two 3 ohm resistors in parallel.
A resistor has a resistance of 176 ohm How many of these resistors should be connected in parallel so that their combination draws a current of 5 amperes from a 220 volt supply line?
4 resistors were connected in parallel it yields 5A of current from 220V supply.
How many amps will you get on a 9 volt battery with a 100 ohm resistor and a 100 ohm resistor and a 470 ohm resistor?
You need to calculate the equivalent resistance. For instance, if the three resistors are connected in series, simply add all the resistance values up. Then, you calculate the current (in amperes) using Ohm's Law (V=IR); that is, you need to divide the voltage by the resistance.
What is the resistance in a circuit if two 60ohm's resistors are connected in series?
The equivalent resistance of multiple resistors connected in series is the sum of theindividual resistances.(10 + 60 + 50) = 120 ohms for this particular trio of resistors in series.It makes no difference what battery they may be connected to, or if they're connected toany power supply at all.

Three 15 ohm resistors are connected in parallel to a 30 volt battery What is the current through each branch of the circuit?
2 amps
What are Resistors wired in series?
Resistors are wired in series when they are connected in a line. The current flows through the resistors one after the other.
Resistors connected in a single path is called?
The resistors connected in single path are called series resistances or resistances in series.The current across both the resistors is same while the potential differences are different.
6 equal resistors of 1 ohm each are connected to form the sides of a hexagon ABCDEF calculate the resistance offered by the combination if the current enters at A and leaves at D?
1.5 ohms. Two 3 ohm resistors in parallel.
What is the current for two resistors 25 amp and 35 Amp connected in parallel?
"Amp" is not a specification associated with resistors. It could be anything.
Advantage of using connecting resistors series in terms of current and voltage?
if resistors connected in series the resistance will increase.Then it limit the flow of current through it. voltage may be increased. A: by connecting any resistors in series it will limit the current flow it will effect the current but never the voltage applied
What is the current in a 1.5V Alkaline battery?
The current depends on what is connected to the battery's terminals. If nothing is connected to it, then there is no current, and the battery lasts quite a while. In general, the current is 1.5/resistance of the external circuit connected to the battery until that number gets too big, and then the voltage of the battery sags, because it can't deliver that much current.
You are just asking that let us assume you have connected 2 or 3 resistors in a circuit and the current flowing through the circuit and from all the resistors will be same but how?
If the resistors are connected in series, the total resistance will be the sum of the resistances of each resistor, and the current flow will be the same thru all of them. if the resistors are connected in parallel, then the current thru each resistor would depend on the resistance of that resistor, the total resistance would be the inverse of the sum of the inverses of the resistance of each resistor. Total current would depend on the voltage and the total resistance
