Why are fixed resisters used in many circuts?

Hi, where there is no need of changing the value of resistor then why do you place variable resistor instead a fixed resistor. After all the selection of resistor depends on the cause of use in application. by the way wide range of resistor values are avilable in the market. if the application requires tuning operation then variable resistor is need to be mounted. nothing is mandatory unless the application requires.

What is the voltage drop running through resistor 1 resistor 1 equals 3 ohms?

There is insufficient information in the question to answer it. You need to provide either the voltage across the resistor, or the power dissipated by the resistor. please restate the question.


What resistor to use to drop 9volt's dc to 6 volt's dc?

To drop a 12 volt source to 6 volts with a resistor, you have to drop 6 volts. The value of the resistor you need would be 6 divided by the current the device pulls in amps. For example, if the device pulls a half an amp the resistor has to be 6/0.5 or 12 ohms. As this device runs on 6 volts and draws 1/2 amp, it's wattage is 3 watts (volts x Amps). Common practice is to double this, or the resistor will probably get too hot and may open. I'd use a 10 watt to resistor to maintain a good margin for safety, and they're readily available. Use a 12 ohm, 10 watt resistor.

How replace Ford Focus fan resistor?

The fan resistor on the Ford Focus is behind the glovebox. You need to carefully lower the glovebox so you can gain access to the motor, but this can be done without actually removing it, just prise it down gently. Once in, the motor is on the righ hand side as you look in, behind the centre console. Using a torch you shold see the original resistor in place and from here on it should be simple, if a little tight.

How do you calculate the correct resistor value needed using 12vdc to run 6vdc circuit?

You need to drop 6 volts across the resistor. -- The resistor you need is 6/(the current in amps that your 6vdc device uses to operate) ohms. Example: If the device uses 1/2 Amp when it's running, then you need a 6/0.5 = 12-ohm resistor. -- And the power-dissipation rating of the resistor has to be at least 36/resistance watts. Example: For the 12-ohm resistor in the last example, it needs to be a (3-watt or more) resistor.
