If you are placing more than one resistors in series, then its combined resistance is higher than when you place these resistors in shunt.

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.


What is the combined resistance of a 39k and a 47k resistor connected in series?

86k. Resistance in series is the sum of the individual resistors.


In a 50 v circuit with a 400 ohm resistance and a 600 ohm resistance in series point a is between the two resistors and point b is to the right of the 600 ohm resistor?

The voltage across 600 ohm resistor(i.e. between point 'a' and 'b') will be 30V.


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.


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!


When resistors are connected in series then what happens to the watt?

Resistors are rated in wattage so the lowest wattage rating will be the wattage of the series circuit. It will be able to handle that power any more and the lowest wattage resistor could be damaged and fail.Another AnswerWhen two or more resistors are connected in series, the resistor with the lowest resistance will operate at the highest power. If the power developed by a resistor exceeds its rated power, then the resistor may burn out.


Is total resistance less than smallest resistor in a series parallel circuit?

no
