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.

What happens if 3 resistors connected in parallel and one of the resistors is open circuited?

When one resistor in a parallel circuit is open-circuited, it effectively becomes an infinite resistance and no current flows through it. The total resistance of the parallel circuit increases, but the remaining resistors continue to function normally. The overall current through the circuit will decrease because the total current is now only dependent on the remaining active resistors. The voltage across all parallel resistors remains the same as before the open circuit occurred.


Why a circuit will produce a loading effect?

This happens because the total parallel resistance is lower than the individual resistors that make up the group of parallel resistors. When you add another parallel load, the resistance of that parallel group lowers and as result increases the current for the rest of the circuit.


What happens to the effective resistance of a circuit when additional resistors are added in parallel resistors already present?

When additional resistors are added in parallel to existing resistors in a circuit, the effective resistance decreases. This is because parallel resistors provide multiple pathways for current to flow, which reduces the overall resistance. The total or equivalent resistance ( R_{eq} ) can be calculated using the formula ( \frac{1}{R_{eq}} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2} + \ldots + \frac{1}{R_n} ), indicating that adding more parallel resistors results in a lower ( R_{eq} ).


What resistors do in oscillator circuit?

The same thing they do in every circuit, resist the flow of electricity. That being said there are Many types of ossilators, and they can use resistors for many purposes.

Do resistors limit current or voltage in an electrical circuit?

Resistors limit the flow of current in an electrical circuit.


How do you find the resistance of a series circuit with n identical 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.


What is monolithic integrated circuit?

A monolithic integrated circuit is a collection of interconnected electronic devices (transistors, diodes, resistors and capacitors) all formed on the surface of a single pieceof a semiconductor crystal (usually silicon). "Monolith" means "one rock".

Do resistors reduce current or voltage in an electrical circuit?

Resistors reduce the flow of current in an electrical circuit, which in turn affects the voltage across the circuit.

Why do people use resistors in an electric circuit?

How is a circuit constructed with five resistors and a battery as shown?

A circuit with five resistors and a battery is constructed by connecting the resistors in series or parallel to create a closed loop for the flow of electric current from the battery through the resistors. The battery provides the energy for the current to flow through the resistors, which resist the flow of current. The arrangement of the resistors and the battery determines the overall resistance and current flow in the circuit.

Do resistors resist voltage or current?

Resistors resist the flow of current in a circuit, not the voltage.
