One use is as a current limiter. For example if a certain device (like a capacitor) is capable of being in conditions similar to a short circuit, the amount of current "drawn" by the capacitor could be damaging to it or other components. Placing a resistor in series with the capacitor means that you can select the proper resistor so that at maximum capable volt, you know the maximum current that will flow through that value resistor according to Ohms Law.
Another use is to design to have a desired voltage present in certain parts of the circuit.
What else can I help you with?
Do resistors limit current or voltage in an electrical circuit?
Resistors limit the flow of current in an electrical circuit.
Do resistors reduce current or voltage in an electrical circuit?
Resistors reduce the flow of current in an electrical circuit, which in turn affects the voltage across the circuit.
How is a circuit constructed with five resistors and a battery as shown?
A circuit with five resistors and a battery is constructed by connecting the resistors in series or parallel to create a closed loop for the flow of electric current from the battery through the resistors. The battery provides the energy for the current to flow through the resistors, which resist the flow of current. The arrangement of the resistors and the battery determines the overall resistance and current flow in the circuit.
Do resistors resist voltage or current?
Resistors resist the flow of current in a circuit, not the voltage.
How do resistors affect the change in current flowing through a circuit?
Resistors in a circuit reduce the flow of current by impeding the movement of electrons. This causes a decrease in the overall current flowing through the 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
What resistors do in oscillator circuit?
The same thing they do in every circuit, resist the flow of electricity. That being said there are Many types of ossilators, and they can use resistors for many purposes.
Why do you use resistors and capacitors in any electronic circuit?
because their effects are desired to make the circuit work
Do resistors limit current or voltage in an electrical circuit?
Resistors limit the flow of current in an electrical circuit.
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.
Why resistors are connecting?
resistors are used to resist the flow of current in a circuit.......
Do resistors reduce current or voltage in an electrical circuit?
Resistors reduce the flow of current in an electrical circuit, which in turn affects the voltage across the circuit.
What type of circuit is it when capacitors are combined with resistors?
RC Circuit

What type of circuit has all its resistors in the same path?
A series circuit
Can you use a battery to make electricity?
make a electric circuit,by using resistors,cll then electricity is produced.
