Two eight-ohm resistors in series would have a total resistance of 16 ohms.
Two eight-ohm resistors in parallel would have a total resistance of four ohms.
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.
The resistance of a series circuit is simply the sum of the individual resistors.
Equivalent resistance of a series circuit is the sum of the resistance of all appliances. The formula is R=R1+R2+... where R is equivalent resistance, R1, R2 and so on is the resistance of the individual appliances.
Resistance in series adds together. two 100 ohm resistors in series are equivalent to one 200 ohm resistor. to make an equation out of it ( even though it is simple) you can say: Rtotal=R1+R2+R3...+Rn
100.0 (apex)
To find equivalent resistance when you have both parallel and series resistors, start simple and expand... Find the smallest part of the circuit, such as a pair of resistors in series or a pair of resistors in parallel, and compute the equivalent single resistor value. Repeat that process, effectively covering more and more of the circuit, until you arrive at a single resistance that is equivalent to the circuit. For resistors in series: RTOTAL = R1 + R2 For resistors in parallel: RTOTAL = R1R2/(R1+R2)
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.
The total resistance in a series circuit is determined by adding (summing) the individual resistances of each component in the circuit.
2000 ohms
The resistance of a series circuit is simply the sum of the individual resistors.
Equivalent resistance of a series circuit is the sum of the resistance of all appliances. The formula is R=R1+R2+... where R is equivalent resistance, R1, R2 and so on is the resistance of the individual appliances.
The equivalent resistance is the overall effect all of the resistances in a circuit has. Put another way, it is the value a single resistor in a circuit would have to be in order to have the same effect as all of the resistors resistors combined in a given circuit.
The equivalent resistance of resistors connected in series is simply the sum of their individual resistances. Therefore, the equivalent resistance of three 8.0-W resistors connected in series is 24.0 W.
The total resistance in a circuit with series resistors is the sum of the individual resistances. When more resistors are added in series, the total resistance increases because the current has to pass through each resistor, making it harder for the current to flow.
If the circuit consists of resistors only, you simply add the values of all the resistors, in ohms.
Equation for Equivalent Resistance in Series isReq= R1+R2+R3+...........If each resistor is equal to 3OhmsthenReq= R1+R2+R3Req=3+3+3Req=9 OhmsThe Equivalent resistance is 9 Ohms.
Yes, additional resistors affect current in a series circuit by increasing the total resistance, which decreases the total current.
