chawki said:1/Req = 1/2R + 1/3R
1/Req = (3R+2R)/6R2
Req = (6/5)*R = (6/5)*50 = 60 Ohms
Total resistance is the overall resistance of a circuit, which is the opposition to the flow of electric current. It is calculated by adding up the individual resistances of all the components in a circuit.
The total resistance between points A and B is important because it determines the amount of current that will flow through the circuit. It also affects the voltage and power in the circuit.
The total resistance between points A and B can be reduced by adding more resistors in parallel, as this decreases the overall resistance of the circuit. Another way is by using resistors with lower values.
The factors that affect the total resistance between points A and B include the resistances of the individual components, the arrangement of the components in the circuit, and the material and length of the wires used.
No, the total resistance between points A and B can never be zero. This is because even if all the components in the circuit have zero resistance, there will still be some resistance in the wires connecting them.
