Question 1 of 5

In a series circuit, what is the total resistance (RT) if R1 = 10 ohms, R2 = 20 ohms, and R3 = 30 ohms?

In series, resistors add directly: RT = R1 + R2 + R3.
Question 2 of 5

What is the formula to calculate the equivalent resistance (RT) of resistors connected in parallel?

The reciprocal of RT equals the sum of the reciprocals of individual resistances.
Question 3 of 5

If two 100-ohm resistors are connected in parallel, what is the total resistance?

For equal parallel resistors: RT = R/n. Here, n=2 (two resistors)
Question 4 of 5

Which of the following is the standard unit of measurement for electrical resistance?

Resistance is measured in Ohms, often represented by the Greek letter omega (?).
Question 5 of 5

In a series circuit, the current flowing through each resistor is...

Current remains constant throughout a series circuit.
