That depends ... in a very interesting way ... on whether they are connected
in series or in parallel.
-- If the resistors are in series, then the total resistance increases when you
add another resistor, and it's always greater than the biggest single one.
-- If the resistors are in parallel, then the total resistance decreases when you
add another resistor, and it's always less than the smallest single one.
What else can I help you with?
What is your observation of resistors in series?
I observe that the total effective resistance of several resistors in series is the sum of the individual resistance values of the individual resistors.
What is true about series connections of resistors?
The more resistance there is, the harder it is for current to flow. So the total resistance is the sum of all resistors in series.
What is the apparent rule for total resistance when resistors are added up in series?
The total resistance in a series circuit is simply the sum of the individual resistances of all the resistors connected in that series. This means that if you have multiple resistors, you add their resistance values together to find the total resistance. Mathematically, it can be expressed as ( R_{total} = R_1 + R_2 + R_3 + \ldots + R_n ). The total resistance increases as more resistors are added in series.
What is a resistor bank?
In simple way resistor bank contains number of resistors in series or parallel combination. They are connected in parallel to decrease the resistance and increase current rating and power dissipation.And they are connected in series to increase resistance and power dissipation.
Which has a highest resistance between shunt resistor and series resistor?
If you are placing more than one resistors in series, then its combined resistance is higher than when you place these resistors in shunt.
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 your observation of resistors in series?
I observe that the total effective resistance of several resistors in series is the sum of the individual resistance values of the individual resistors.
When resistors are put in a series with each other the overall resistance is?
The effective resistance of several resistors in series is the sum of the individual resistances.
What is true about series connections of resistors?
The more resistance there is, the harder it is for current to flow. So the total resistance is the sum of all resistors in series.
What is the difference between connecting resistors in parallel and in series?
When resistors are connected in series, the total resistance is the sum of the individual resistances. When resistors are connected in parallel, the total resistance is less than the smallest individual resistance.
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.
What is the relations for the equivalent resistance of a number of resistors connected in series?
Resistance in series is simply the sum of the resistors. RSERIES = SummationI=1,N(RI)
What is the rule for finding the total resistance of a number of resistors connected in series?
If the resistors are in series, then the total resistance is simply the sum of the resistances of each resistor.
What causes an increase of resistance in a series circuit?
An increase in resistance in a series circuit can be caused by adding resistors in series, increasing the length or cross-sectional area of the wire, or using a material with higher resistivity. This leads to a higher total resistance in the circuit, which can reduce the current flowing through it.
What is the total resistance in a circuit that contains three 60 resistors connected in series?
The total effective resistance of resistors in series is the sum of the individual resistances.Three 60-ohm resistors in series have a total effective resistance of (60 + 60 + 60) = 180 ohms.
Three 8.0-W resistors are connected in series What is their equivalent resistance?
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.
What will happen to the other resistor if the number of resistor decreases?
the voltage across that resistor will increase if it is in series with the other resistors. the current through that resistor will increase if it is in parallel with the other resistors.
