The proof of the equivalent value of resistors in series lies in using Ohm's law along with Kirchoff's voltage and current laws.
For a circuit of two resistors in parallel, across a voltage source, start with Kirchoff's voltage law. The signed sum of voltages drops across each element in a series circuit is zero. Said another way, the voltages across two parallel elements is the same. That means the voltage across each resistor is the same, and it is the same as the voltage across the voltage source.
Since you now know the voltage across each resistor, you can calculate its current using Ohm's law.
Now look at Kirchoff's current law. The signed sum of the currents entering a node is zero. Said another way, the current at every point in a series circuit is the same. Said yet another way, the way we are going to need it, is that the sum of the currents entering a node is equal to the sum of the currents leaving a node.
You know the current in each resistor. Add them up and you get the current leaving the voltage source which is also the total current through the resistors. Knowing that current, and the voltage across them, go back to Ohm's law and plug in voltage and current, giving you net resistance.
a circuit with no resistance or zero resistance can be considered as open circuit in which the current is zero. without resistance the circuit just becomes open ()
The resistance of the circuit is measured in ohms.
No, the resistance in a circuit does not change when voltage changes. Resistance is an inherent property of the circuit.
The total resistance in a series circuit is determined by adding (summing) the individual resistances of each component in the circuit.
The resistance of the circuit is measured in units of ohms.
Not sure what you mean. The equivalent (total) resistance in a parallel circuit is less than any individual resistance.
If measuring resistance of materials or resistors by themselves(not soldered into a circuit board) resistance is constant. If measuring resistance of a circuit then it could fluctuate with the components functioning in the circuit.
On Circuit Resistance = Close to the total load Resistance. Off Circuit Resistance = Near Infinitive High Resistance.
resistance to the flow of electrical current in the circuit. It is a measure of how much opposition the circuit presents to the flow of electricity. The higher the number of ohms, the greater the resistance in the circuit.
Voltage = (current) x (resistance) Current = (voltage)/(resistance) Resistance = (voltage)/(current)
You would have to specify the circuit.
Resistance is generally used to control the flow of amount of current in the circuit.
