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.
To find the resistance of two resistors in series you just add their resistances together.
The answer depends on how the extra resistor is added. If it is added in series, the total increases. If added in parallel with one or more of the originals, the total decreases.
Resistors in series have greater resistance than those in parallel.
RSeries = SummationI=1toN RI
If you decrease the number of resistors in series, without changing the value of any of the resistors, then the total resistance will decrease.
Additional resistance added in series causes the
total resistance of the circuit to increase.
resistance increases
I observe that the total effective resistance of several resistors in series is the sum of the individual resistance values of the individual 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.
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.
If you are placing more than one resistors in series, then its combined resistance is higher than when you place these resistors in shunt.
Add the two together. For instance, two 100 ohm resistors in series have a total resistance of 200 ohms.
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.

The resistance of a series circuit is simply the sum of the individual resistors.
If the resistors are in series, then the total resistance is simply the sum of the resistances of each resistor.
Resistance in series is simply the sum of the resistors. RSERIES = SummationI=1,N(RI)
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.
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.

if resistors connected in series the resistance will increase.Then it limit the flow of current through it. voltage may be increased. A: by connecting any resistors in series it will limit the current flow it will effect the current but never the voltage applied
Two eight-ohm resistors in series would have a total resistance of 16 ohms. Two eight-ohm resistors in parallel would have a total resistance of four ohms.
