most of the resistors commonly used are carbon resistors
Carbon composition resistors are resistors that are made with carbon or graphite mixed with a binding material. It's one type of resistors among several. There are also carbon-film resistors and metal-film resistors. Out of all the resistors, carbon-film resistors have the greatest tolerances and changes to temperature fluctations. Thus, they are used in applications where precision isn't critical and where temperature will not change drastically.
The total resistance of resistors in series is simply the sum of the resistance values of those resistors. If the resistors are identical, then you can multiply the resistance of one of them by the number of resistors in the circuit.
Otis f.boykin invented resistors
Film resistors have lower noise than carbon resistors.
Both resistors will have the voltage of the battery.
Resistors are wired in series when they are connected in a line. The current flows through the resistors one after the other.

Linear resistors
Resistors are like funnels, they restrict the flow of current.
resistors are used to resist the flow of current in a circuit.......
photo resistors, or light dependent resistors, are devices with variable resistance, that cahnges depending on how much light is hitting the device
