How is the total resistance in a series circuit is determined?
The total resistance in a series circuit is determined by adding (summing) the individual resistances of each component in the circuit.
What happens in a series circuit if the resistance is halved?
If you add a second resistor, the resistance of series circuit will increase.
How do you calculate the joint resistance in a series circuit with three resistances?
The resistance of a series circuit is simply the sum of the individual resistors.
How are resistance combined in a series circuit?
Resistances are additive in a series circuit.
Where is the most resistance lost in a series circuit?
Resistance isn't lost. The largest voltage drop will occur across the largest resistance in a series circuit.
What is a resistance circuit?
It does not contain unidirectional outputAnswerA purely resistive circuit is an 'ideal' circuit that contains resistance, but not inductance or capacitance.
How can you make the resistance higher in a circuit?
A: practically any series resistance will do that
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!
What is the affect of a series circuit on current?
by adding the the resistances in series the total resistance of the circuit increses and thus the crunt flowing in the circuit decrese. Ans 2 . the current in series circuit of constant resistance will always be the same . It will not effect the current .
What is a resistance network?
A resistance 'network' consists of a number of resistors connected together in series, or in parallel, or in series-parallel, or as a complex circuit. A 'complex' circuit is one that is not series, parallel, or series-parallel.
When you add resistors that are in a series to a ciruit?
You raise the total resistance by that amount if added in series to a circuit. If you add them in parallel to a circuit then that total resistance will be less than the total of the added circuit.
10 ohms 60 ohmsand 50 ohms are wired in series and connected to a 120-V battery What is the equivalent resistance for this circuit?
For a series circuit such as this, simply add the resistances to get the equivalent resistance.For a series circuit such as this, simply add the resistances to get the equivalent resistance.For a series circuit such as this, simply add the resistances to get the equivalent resistance.For a series circuit such as this, simply add the resistances to get the equivalent resistance.
