atticus726 Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 hi i need someones help who understands how to find total resistance of a circuit. i attached the picture of the circuit. question is "what would be the resistance measured between point A and point B. R1=50 ohms, R2=25 ohms, R3=5 ohms.i am not sure if this is a parrallel circuit or a peries parallel circuit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audioguru Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 Hi Atticus,Welcome to our forum. ;DI hope your teacher won't get mad at you for not doing your own homework.I think the resistors are connected like this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atticus726 Posted April 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 so then if they are all in parallel with each other then it would be 1 1________________ _____________________________1 1 1 = 1 2 10-- + -- + -- -- -- --50 25 5 50 50 50 1 ----- 13 = 50 ---- -- = 3.846 ohms total resistance? 50 13does this look right?

audioguru Posted April 14, 2007 Report Share Posted April 14, 2007 I think your answer is correct.Did you see that the resistors are in parallel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
