Answer to Question #136329 in Electric Circuits for Viccy

Question

What is equivalent resistance when we connect two equal resistances in series.

Answer 1

When two resistors, $R_{1}$ and $R_{2}$ are connected in series, the equivalent resistance, $R_{E}$ is the sum of the resistance of each resistor.

That is, $R_{E} = R_{1} + R_{2}$
