Question

What is the total resistance of a circuit with four 5 ohm resistors in series?

Answer 1

Answer:

Rt = 20 [ohm]

Explanation:

For serial connected circuits the total resistance is calculated as the sum of all serial connected resistors that are part of the circuit.

Therefore:

$R_{T}=5 + 5+5+5 \\R_{T}=20[ohm]$
