The only reason i can think of this making sense is that it makes the calculation for total resistance easier. Other then that i can't see any benefit from having resistors with similar ratings.
The formula for finding total resistance in a parallel circuit is Rt=1/1/r1+1/r2+1/rn...
If all the resistors are the same, you can do the calculation in your head a lot easier.
What else can I help you with?
What type of resistor is used for automotive circuits?
Which type of resistor is commonly used in automotive circuits?
Why RC circuit is preferred over RL circuit in waveshaping?
There is no true advantage of RC circuits over RL circuits, as they perform different functions. RC circuits contain resistors and capacitors, while RL circuits contain resistors and inductors.
Do all electric circuits have the same basic features?
no
What is one way that parallels circuits are more useful than series circuits?
Loads receive current independently of each other.
What is the function of a 180K resistor in hobby kit?
All resistors have the same function in a hobby kit, to cause a voltage drop in series circuits or reduce currents in parallel circuits. A value of 180k ohms is just going to do that by a lot.
What is the relationship between you and R in networks of parallel resistors in electric circuits?
libolo
What are tiny electric circuits printed on thin peice of silicon called?
They are called "integrated circuits" (ICs) or "microchips." These circuits are composed of electronic components such as transistors, resistors, and capacitors that are interconnected to perform specific functions.
When are series circuits useful-?
when loads act as switches
What are advantages of a series combination of resistors?
parallel combination of resistors are used in house circuits
How do the components in electric circuits affect the electric current?
Components such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors can affect electric current by either impeding the flow (resistors), storing charge (capacitors), or inducing voltage (inductors). These components change the overall characteristics of the circuit, affecting the amount of current that flows through it.
What products use resistors?
allmost every electronic devices uses resistors..(it is needed in all circuits)
How do you wire Resistors required for led combination circuits?
in series
Compare magnetic circuit and electric corcuit?
A magnetic circuit describes the flow of magnetic flux through a material, typically consisting of a magnetic core and windings. An electric circuit, on the other hand, describes the flow of electric current through a path that includes components like resistors, capacitors, and inductors. Both circuits involve the transfer of energy, but magnetic circuits focus on the flow of magnetic fields, while electric circuits focus on the flow of electric charge.
Can resistors function the same in AC circuits as in DC circuits?
Yes, they both can add a load to a circuit.
What are two ways electric circuits can be arranged?
Electric circuits with 2 terminals can be arranged in "series" or in "parallel". This applies to all 2-terminal circuits - including fundamental components such as resistors, capacitors, or inductors. The term "series" means that an electrical path in an existing circuit is broken and the circuit is connected to the 2 terminals of the break. The term "parallel" means that the electric circuit is connected between 2 existing terminals or nodes of the existing circuit.
Why do people use resistors in an electric circuit?
we use resistors in an electric circuit to describe how a wire works and to control the flow of electricity
