Equivalent resistance is a crucial concept for individuals working with electrical circuits. It: Represents the single resistance that replaces multiple resistors in a circuit. Simplifies calculations ...

Previous tutorials have described that resistors may either be connected as a series circuit or a parallel circuit where the currents and voltages are obtained using Ohm’s Law. To produce more complex ...

Electrical circuits transport alternating or direct current through closed-loop interconnections between electrical components. Different arrangements and configurations of these components make ...

A parallel circuit is way of connecting components on separate branches, so the current can take different routes around the circuit. The current is different in different parts of a parallel circuit.

When resistors are connected in series, the current through each resistor is the same. When resistors are connected in series, the total of all the voltages (sometimes referred to as potential ...
