A 120 ohm resistor a 60 ohm resistor and a 40 ohm resistor are connected in parallel to a 120 volt power source What is the effective resistance of the three resistors?
To find the effective resistance of resistors connected in parallel, you can use the following formula: 1/Reff = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 + ... In this case, we have three resistors connected in parallel: a 120-ohm resistor, a 60-ohm resistor, and a 40-ohm resistor. 1/Reff = 1/120 + 1/60 + 1/40 To simplify the equation, we need to find a common denominator: 1/Reff = (1/120) + (2/120) + (3/120) 1/Reff = 6/120 Now, let's invert both sides of the equation: Reff = 120/6 Reff = 20 ohms Therefore, the effective resistance of the three resistors connected in parallel is 20 ohms.
What is the resistance of a parallel circuit with resistance of 2 ohms 4 ohms 6 ohms and 10 ohms?
R = 1/[1/2 + 1/4 + 1/6 + 1/10] Add up the reciprocals of the resistances, and take the reciprocal of the answer.
What is the resistance in a parallel circuit with resistances of 2 ohms 4 ohms 6 ohms and 10 ohms?
In a parallel circuit, the total resistance is the inverse of the total of 1 over the value of the first resistor plus 1 over the value of the second resistor. Said another way, if you take 1 over the value of R1 plus 1 over the value of R2, and then take 1 over that, you will find Rtotal. So let's do that. 1/10 + 1/2 = 1/10 + 5/10 = 6/10 1 divided by 6/10 = 10/6 = 1 2/3 ohms for the total resistance. As a quick check, in any parallel network where a group of resistive elements are all connected in parallel, the total resistance will be less than the value of the smallest one. The smallest one in this case is 2 ohms, so we are good to go by that simple check.
What is the resistance of the circuit if current flow is 6 amperes in a 120-V circuit?
Google Ohms Law. It will give you all the formulas you need to compute Ohms,Volts and Amps. Simple formulas :-)
If the 60 volts and the resistance of the load is 10 ohms the current is how many amperes?
6 amperes
How do you place 3 resistance to get the total resistance of 1 ohm?
It depends on the resistance of each resistor. If each resistor, for example, is 0.333 ohm, then you could connect them in series. If each resistor, for example, is 3 ohms, then you could connect them in parallel.
What is the total resistance of a 6-ohm resistor and a 12-ohm resistor in a parallel series?
In series like so ---6 ohms ---- 12 ohms --- , the total resistance is just 6 ohms + 12 ohms.assuming you mean in parallel like this:_|---6 ohms-----|-|~|-_|---12 ohms---|then the resistance of this can be calculated like so:1/6 ohms + 1/12 ohms = 1/R (where R is the resistance of the circuit as a whole)2/12 ohms + 1/12 ohms = 1/R3/12 ohms = 1/R1/4 ohms = 1/Rso R = 4 ohmsA few notes, if the resistors are in parallel the total resistance will always be less than or equal to the lowest resistance in parallel (i.e 6 ohms in parallel with 12 ohms will have resistance less than 6 ohms).Also if two resistances in parallel are the same, then the resistance is half of the resistance of both resistors (i.e. 1/2 ohms + 1/2 ohms = 1/R; 1 = 1/R, R=1 ohm which is half of 2 ohms).This process can be extended to 2 or more resistors in parallel.i.e if we had a 6 ohm, 6 ohm and 12 ohm resistor in parallel we could go1/6 ohms + 1/6 ohms + 1/12 ohms = 1/R(1/6 ohms + 1/6 ohms) + 1/12 ohms = 1/R1/3 ohms + 1/12 ohms = 1/R4/12ohms + 1/12 ohms = 1/R5/12 ohms = 1/Rso R = 12/5 ohms or 2.4 ohms

A metal resistor has a voltage of 12Voltage across it and a current of 2Amperes through it what is the resistance?
According to Ohms law, which states that Resistance (R) = Voltage (V) / Current (I) 6 Ohms
If three cells that each have an emf 1.5 volts and an internal resistance of 2 ohms are connected in series to a resistor of 44 ohms what is the current through the resistor?
Taking the question at face value, the internal resistances will be treated like "real" resistors in the circuit. That means we have 3 batteries of 1.5 volts each connected in series with their 2 ohms + 2 ohms + 2 ohms of internal risistance, or 6 ohms of internal resistance. The 6 ohms of internal resistance acts in series with the 44 ohms of resistance stated as the value of the resistor. The total resistance is simply the sum of the two, or 6 ohms + 44 ohms or 50 ohms of total resistance. The batteries are connected in series, and their individual voltages are added to find total applied voltage. That means 1.5 volts + 1.5 volts + 1.5 volts or 4.5 volts will be the total applied voltage. Total current in the circuit (and through our 44 ohm resistor) will be the voltage applied divided by the resistance ( I = E / R), which, in this case, is 4.5 volts / 50 ohms which equals 0.07 amps. That's 7/100ths of an amp, or, in electronics speak, 70/1000ths of an amp, or 70 milliamps, or 70mA of current. The circuit is a series circuit, and that current, the total circuit current, will be flowing through each and every component of the circuit. That's what a series circuit means.
There are two resistors in a series the second has a rsistance that is three times the resistance of the first in the series The single resistor has a resistance that is 6 ohms more than the res?
Let x be the resistance of the first resistor, and y be the second. Given: y = 3x -- (1) Given: y - x = 6 -- (2) Substitute equation (1) into (2). We have 3x - x = 2x = 6. Therefore x = 3.
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?
3.0 or threeAnswerIt depends how they are connected.In series, ther total resistance will be 220 ohms and, so, the current will be 120/220 = 0.545 A.In parallel, ther total resistance will be 20 ohms and, so, the current will be 120/20 = 6 A.
What is the voltage drop through a resistor of 6 ohms (2 amps)?
12 volts
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.
