  1. How to detect if resistors are in parallel or series?

    Nov 4, 2015 · Some circuits are easier to see which resistors are in parallel or series. However, when faced with a more complex circuit, I can't figure out which ones are in series or parallel. I …

  2. Determine which circuits are parallel and which are in series

    Oct 22, 2014 · I need to find the Equivalent Resistance across A and B. The problem is, I don't know which one's are in series and which ones are in parallel. How do I identify which ones …

  3. Why is voltage equal across the resistors connected in parallel?

    Jun 8, 2021 · "In parallel," by definition, means that the resistors all are connected between the same two nodes. When you measure the Voltage across any one of the resistors, you are by …

  4. Why is the resistance in a parallel circuit smaller than the …

    Jul 23, 2016 · And now I have two resistors in parallel, carrying twice as much current as a single resistor. From the perspective of the entire circuit, the "effective resistance" is half (because, …

  5. Power dissipated by resistors in series versus in parallel for fixed ...

    Aug 25, 2018 · Do two resistors in parallel dissipate more power for a fixed applied voltage compared to the same two resistors in series?

  6. Are these 4 resistors connected in series or parallel?

    Dec 19, 2020 · That would mean that the top-left and bottom-right series networks would together be combined in a parallel network. But then this would cause the total resistance of the circuit …

  7. What are the different methods for a resistor circuit that isn't ...

    What are the different approaches to determine the equivalent resistance of nontrivial resistor networks in general, that cannot be reduced by the usual series and parallel rules? (The …

  8. Why does voltage remains same over Parallel Circuit

    Why does voltage remains same over parallel circuit. If a resistor is connected in the circuit some of the charge should be transformed into heat and make a lack of charge after the resistor (in …

  9. Calculating uncertainty when combining parallel resistors

    Jan 11, 2019 · A recent question asks students to calculate the total resistance of parallel resistors R 1 and R 2 with uncertainty. R 1 = 120 Ω (+/-10%). R 2 = 500 Ω (+/-10%). We would …

  10. homework and exercises - Error calculation in parallel resistances ...

    Mar 30, 2015 · This is the question: There are two resistors with resistance values $R_1=100\\pm3$ ohm and $R_2=200\\pm4$ ohm. Find the equivalent resistance of parallel …
