One step at a time...

RSeries = SummationI=1toN (RI)

RParallel = 1 / SummationI=1toN (1 / RI)

Simply solve what you know, and build on the results.

What is Resistance of 20 ohms and 10 ohms?

Well, the total circuit resistance depends on the type of connection. If the two resistances (or any number of resistances) are connected in series, IE. one resistance end is connected to one end of another resistance, the the circuit total resistance is the sum of the two resistances. say two resistances r1 and r2 are connected in series the total resistance is r1+r2 (in this case its 30 ohms). If the resistances are connected in parallel IE. both the ends of a resistance are connected to both ends of another resistance then the total resistance in this case shall be (r1*r2)/(r1+r2) ,( that is 6.67 ohms in given case).


Is overall resistance the same as total resistance?

Yes


What is Hot Resistance?

Hot resistance is your total resistance you can have with out exceeding your wattage limit


What change occurred to the total resistance of the circuit when the extra globe was added?

When an extra globe is added to a circuit, the total resistance depends on how the globes are connected. If they are connected in series, the total resistance increases because the resistances add together. If they are connected in parallel, the total resistance decreases, as the overall resistance is reduced by the additional path for current flow. Therefore, the change in total resistance depends on the configuration of the globes in the circuit.


How is the total resistance in a series circuit is determined?

The total resistance in a series circuit is determined by adding (summing) the individual resistances of each component in the circuit.

What are the laws of series and parallel connection?

1.In series connection the total resistance is equal the total number of resistor that was connected in series 2.the current is constant in a series connection 3.in a series connection total voltage is equal the number of of volt per cells


What will the power be when the resistance is converted from parallel to series connection?

It depends upon the resistance values. Series resistance is the summation of all of the resistances, but to calculate the parallel is more complicated. Once the total resistance of each configuration is known, find the total current for each then multiply the current by the source voltage and this will provide the power.


Is the power dissipated in a parallel circuit larger than the power dissipated in a serial circuit?

Consider t resistors with same Ohmic values. If they are in series total resistance Rt = R1 + R2. if they are in parallel then total resistance Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2. Series connection will have higher resistance.

What are the relation between individual voltages and the total voltage when the resistors are connected in parallel circuit?

total resistance of a parallel connection network of resisters is equals the total resistance divided by one. 1/total R = 1/R1+1/R2+1/R3+................+1/RN since we get 1/total R from the above formula, to get total resistance (total R) just reciprocate the answer. secondly, if u have only two resistors connected in parallel say R1 & R2, then total Resistance total R=(R1*R2 )/R1+R2 inform.mayaprasad@gmail.com


What is the relationship between total resistance and the resistance across each load?

There is no such thing as 'resistance across' a load! The correct term is 'resistance of a load'.To answer your question, it depends on how the loads are connected. If they are connected in series, for example, the total resistance is equal to the sum of the individual resistances. If they are connected in parallel, then you must use the following equation: 1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 + etc.For any other connection, you will have to work it out individually.
