Explain series combination or parrallel combination |
|
Answer» Resistors in Series : A circuit is said to be connected in series when the same amount of current flows through the resistors. In such circuits, the voltage across each resistor is different. In a series connection, if any resistor is broken or a fault occurs, then the entire circuit is turned off. The construction of a series circuit is simpler compared to a parallel circuit.The total resistance of the system is given by the following relation.Rtotal = R1 + R2 + ….. + RnResistors in Parallel: A circuit is said to be connected in parallel when the voltage is same across the resistors. In such circuits, the current is branched out and recombines when branches meet at a common point. A resistor or any other component can be connected or disconnected easily without affecting other elements in a parallel circuit.The total resistance here is given by the following relation. when resistor is connected in series manner in a circuit is called series combinationwhen resistor is connected in parrallel manner in a circuit is called parrallel combination |
