Resistors placed in series create a total resistance that is found by simply adding the values of the resistors. (Knowing the applied voltage isn't necessary to solve this problem.) Rt = R1 + R2 + R3 = 2 ohms + 4 ohms + 6 ohms = 12 ohms

What is complete circuit?
a complete circuit is a whole set of series of connections of components like resistors capacitors diodes battery connected such that current flows through it in loops
If you have a circuit consisting of a battery and a wire What two factors determine the amount of current in the circuit?
The voltage of the battery, and the resistance of the circuit (including the resistance of the wire and the internal resistance of the battery).
What happens to the total resistance of a series circuit if one of the resistors becomes shorted?
The total effective resistance of several resistors connected in series is the sum of the individual resistances.If one of them becomes "shorted" ... i.e. its resistance changes from several ohms to zero or very small ... then its contribution to the sum is reduced, and the total series resistance is decreased.
What happens to resistance when resistors are wired in parallel delta circuit?
What do you mean by a 'parallel delta' circuit -is there such a connection.
What is the equivalent resistance of the parallel circuit you have connected?
In principle, it is infinite. I have not connected a parallel circuit in ages.
What is the equivalent resistance of a circuit that contains two 50.0 resistors connected in series to a 12.0 v battery?
100.0 -apex
What is the equivalent resistance of a circuit that contains two 50.0 resistors connected in parallel with a 12.0 V battery?
100.0 (apex)
Three 15 ohm resistors are connected in parallel to a 30 volt battery. What is the equivalent resistance through the circuit?
5 ohms...
What is the total resistance of 3 resistors connected in series?
It depends on the resistance of the three resistors. Total resistance in a series circuit is the sum of the individual resistances.
Three 15 ohm resistors are connected in parallel to a 30 volt battery What is the equivalent resistance through the circuit?
15
Which is the total resistance of a circuit that contains two 100 ohms resistors connected in parallel?
Two 100-ohm resistors connected in parallel have a combined effective resistance of 50 ohms.
What is the total resistance in a circuit that contains three 60 ohms resistors connected in a series?
Three 60-ohm resistors connected in series have a total effective resistance of 180 ohms.
What is total resistance in a circuit that contains three 60 resistors connected in series?
180ohm
How do you find resistance in a parallel circuit?
A parallel circuit is a circuit in which the resistors are arranged with their heads connected together and their tails connected together. in parallel combination voltage remains constant and current varies . The total resistance of a set of resistors in parallel is found by adding up the reciprocals of the resistance values..
What happens to the resistance in a circuit when resistors are connected in series?
Adding resistors in series will cause the total resistance to go up. RSERIES = summation1-N(RN)
If 3 15 ohm resistors are connected in parallel to a 30 volt battery what is the equvalent resistance through the circuit?
If three 15-ohm resistors are connected in parallel, then their net effective resistance is 5 ohms.It makes no difference what they're connected to, or if they're connected to anything, or whetheror not you have any plans to ever connect them to anything.
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.
