Question

a _______ circuit, the total resistance is greater than the largest resistance in the circuit *



a) series

b) parallel

c) either series or parallel

d) neither series nor parallel​

Answer 1

Answer:

A) series

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is option a) series.

The total resistance in a series circuit is the sum of all the resistance in the circuit, hence it is more than the biggest resistance.

Explanation:

• A circuit with resistors in series has a total resistance equal to the sum of the resistors.
• Adding extra resistors to a series circuit exceeds total resistance and consequently lowers current.
• In a parallel circuit, on the other hand, putting more resistors in parallel creates more options and lowers total resistance.
• Current will increase if the resistors are linked to the same battery.
