Resistors have resisting power(resists the electric power).Due to having the resistive property, the name resistor is given to such electrical device.
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.
Resistors are wired in series when they are connected in a line. The current flows through the resistors one after the other.
parallel combination of resistors are used in house circuits
Which is true of a series circuit that has two resistors?A.The resistors are on different branches of the circuit.B.Neither resistor has current flowing through it.C.One resistor has no voltage across it.D.Both resistors have current flowing through them.
The equivalent resistance, from corner to corner, of 12 resistors connected in a cube is 5/6 that of a single resistor.Proof:Start from one corner and flow current through to the opposite corner. You have three resistors. Each of those three resistors is connected to two resistors, in a crisscross pattern. Those six resistors are then connected to three resistors which are connected to the other corner. By symmetry, the voltages at the upper junctions are the same, and then same can be said for the lower junction. You can then simplify the circuit by shorting out the upper junctions and (separately) the lower junctions. This means the circuit is equivalent to three resistors in parallel, in series with six resistors in parallel, in series with three resistors in parallel. This is 1/3 R plus 1/6 R plus 1/3 R, or 5/6 R.
Linear resistors
The resistors connected in single path are called series resistances or resistances in series.The current across both the resistors is same while the potential differences are different.
Um... "resistors". There are different types, with specific names, generally based on how they're constructed, but they're still called resistors.
Fixed
jumper
A jumper. They have a single black stripe.
its called a complete circuit
most of the resistors commonly used are carbon resistors
A Kelvin bridge (as well called a Kelvin double bridge and in some countries a Thomson bridge) is a measuring instrument used to measure unknown electrical resistors below 1 ohm. It is specifically designed to measure resistors that are built as four terminal resistors.
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.
Film resistors have lower noise than carbon resistors.
Look inside the toaster when it is toasting. The wires that go back and forth and glow red during toasting are resistors, there is one of these wire resistors on each side of each slot to provide the heat that does the toasting. The wire of these resistors is made of an alloy called Nichrome, made of Nickel and Chromium, that has relatively high resistance. Nichrome is also used in wirewound resistors in electronic devices.
