What happens in a series circuit if one of the resistors is replaced with a resistor having a lower resistance value?

In a series circuit, if one resistor is replaced with a resistor of lower resistance, the total resistance in the circuit decreases. This leads to an increase in the overall current flowing through 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 happens to a series circuit if a longer wire is used?

Resistance is increased so the light will be dimmer.


What happens when resistors are interconnected in a circuit?

The net resistance can be found out using the algebraic sums f series and parallel connections. When there is no current flowing in the circuit the net resistance is infinite.


How are resistance combined in a series circuit?

Resistances are additive in a series circuit.


How do you calculate the joint resistance in a series circuit with three resistances?

The resistance of a series circuit is simply the sum of the individual resistors.


Where is the most resistance lost in a series circuit?

Resistance isn't lost. The largest voltage drop will occur across the largest resistance in a series circuit.


What happens when one bulb is added to a series circuit?

The resistance is increased, the voltage across each bulb is decreased and the current through the circuit is reduced.


What is a resistance circuit?

It does not contain unidirectional outputAnswerA purely resistive circuit is an 'ideal' circuit that contains resistance, but not inductance or capacitance.


What happens to the energy as it goes around a series circuit?

What do you mean by energy? amps? Volts?, Either way if you have a series circuit with 3 loads in the circuit all voltage will be dropped proportionally to the loads resistance, if that makes any sense.


Is resistance in a series circuit equal to the largest resistor in the series?

No. The resistance in a series circuit is all the resistor values added together. eg. If two resistors were in a circuit, one was 10 ohms and the other was 30 ohms, the resistance in the circuit would be 30 ohms. Hope this helps!


How can you make the resistance higher in a circuit?

A: practically any series resistance will do that
