How do you test to identify a bad resistor?
First you need to know the value of the resistor. Follow the link for a handy resistor calculator After determining the value of your resistor simply test the resistor with an ohmmeter to see if it is at true value. General use should be within + or - 5%
Why is there no flow of electric current between 2 objects of equal resistance?
I am not sure how the two objects of equal resistance are supposed to be connected. But for a current to flow, for example across a resistor, there must be a voltage difference between the terminals of this resistor.
You are just asking that let us assume you have connected 2 or 3 resistors in a circuit and the current flowing through the circuit and from all the resistors will be same but how?
If the resistors are connected in series, the total resistance will be the sum of the resistances of each resistor, and the current flow will be the same thru all of them. if the resistors are connected in parallel, then the current thru each resistor would depend on the resistance of that resistor, the total resistance would be the inverse of the sum of the inverses of the resistance of each resistor. Total current would depend on the voltage and the total resistance
How do you check a resistor?
You can measure directly with an Ohm Meter, often combined with a Volt Meter. Or you can measure the voltage across the resistance and the current to calculate resistance as Current divided by Voltage.
What is the name for an electrical load that converts electrical energy into heat energy?
The name for an electrical load that converts electrical energy into heat energy is a resistor. Resistor works by resisting the flow of electricity through a circuit, which in turn generates heat as a byproduct.
When a 1 ohm resistor and a 1 ohm resistor are connected in series what is their conbined resistance?
The combined resistance will be 2 Ohms.
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.
What resistance must be connected in parallel to 6.0-ohm resistor to reduce the combined resistance to 15-ohm?
No such resistor exists. Any resistor placed in parallel with a 6.0 ohm resistor is going to reduce the combined resistance below 6.0 ohms.
When 2 resistors are connected in parallel r1r2 are?
Two resistors connected in parallel are 1/2 the sum of their resistance. The resistance of two resistors connected in series is the sum of their resistance. For example: The total resistance of a 100 ohm resistor connected to a 200 ohm resistor in parallel is 100+200 divided by 2 = 150 ohms. The total resistance of a 100 ohm resistor connected to a 200 ohm resistor in series 100+200= 300 ohms.
If a 15-ohm resistor is connected in parallel with a 30 ohm-resistor the equivalent resistance is?
Rt = 10
A red resistor draws more current than a blue resistor when they are connected to the same battery which resistor has the lower resistance?
The voltage of a battery goes as the current times the resistance (V=IR). Because the voltage is being held constant, the resistor that draws the most current will have the lower resistance.
Resistors A and B are connected in parallel If resistor B has twice the resistance of A what is the current taken by resistor B?
half of the current flowing thru resistor 1.... V=IR.
What is the difference between resistance box rheostat and resistor?
A resistance box is a device that contains a set of fixed resistors that can be connected in various combinations to achieve different resistance values. A rheostat is a variable resistor that can be adjusted to change the resistance in a circuit. A resistor is a general term for a component that resists the flow of electrical current in a circuit and comes in fixed resistance values.
Voltmeter is connected in parallel with resistor?
A voltmeter can be connected in parallel with a resistor to show the voltage across the resistor.
What is the equivalent resistance of three resistor with 3 ohms connected in star?
There is no 'equivalent resistance' for three resistors connected in star.
What is the difference between an ohmic resistor and a non-ohmic resistor?
A non-ohmic resistor doesn't have a constant resistance. A ohmic resistor has a constant resistance.
What is different between the resistor and pullup resistor?
A "pull-up" resistor is a resistor used to to perform a specific electronic function - it is not a different type of resistor. A very small current flows through a pull-up resistor so it does not need to be high wattage (1/8 watt is generally fine). The value of a pull-up resistor depends on the resistance of the sensor. If it is simply on or off (no resistance) then a typical pull-up resistor might be 10k ohms.
