A 5 ohm resistor a 10 ohm resistor and a 15 ohm resistor are connected in series to a 120 volt power source. What is the amount of current flowing between the 5 ohm resistor and the 10 ohm resistor?

The current would be about 20 volts.


What is the voltage drop across a 12 ohm resistor with a source of 24 volts?

If there's nothing else between the ends of the resistor and the power supply, then the voltage across the resistor is 24 volts, and the current through it is 2 amperes.


A 1.2 k ohms resistor is placed across an 18-V source The minimum acceptable power rating for the resistor is?

1/2 watt (In theory you could use a "0.27 Watt" resistor, however there would be no safety factory and there is no standard value resistor that size.)


How do you install a resistor in an DC circuit?

It depends on the purpose for installing the resistor. If the intent is to decrease current flow, the resistor must be connected in series with the load. If the purpose is to increase current flow, the resistor must be connected in parallel with the load. To connect a resistor in series, connect the resistor to one side of the power source, in line with the load. This will decrease circuit current flow. To connect a resistor in parallel, connect the resistor between the positive and negative sides of the power source, which will effectively connect the resistor across the load . This will increase current flow through the circuit. However, before connecting a component in parallel, make sure the increase in current flow will not exceed the current rating of the circuit or fuses/breakers will blow.


What is the relation between the size of the resistor and its value?

There is no relation between the resistor's ohms value and its size. The power of the resistor can be seen by its size. If the power is too small, the resistor can be destroyed.

A 120 ohm resisto a 60 ohm resistor and a 40 ohm resistor are connected in parallel to a 120 volt power source What is the current running through the 60 ohm resistor?

If they're in parallel, then each resistor acts as if it were the only one,and the presence of any others is irrelevant.The current through the 60-ohm resistor is I = E/R = (120/60) = 2 amperes.

Do all subwoofers have their own power source?

Most subwoofers have their own power source. There are subwoofers called "passive" woofers that will be powered by your amplifier.


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.
