Eiman connects eight 12Ω lamps in series. What is
the total resistance of the circuit?

Respuesta :

Lanuel

Answer:

Total resistance = 96 Ohms

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Resistance = 12 Ohms

Number of resistors = 8

To find the total resistance;

Method I.

Since the resistors are connected in series, we would simply multiply the resistance by the number of resistors.

Total resistance = 12 * 8

Total resistance = 96 Ohms.

Method II.

We would add the resistance of all the eight resistors together.

Total resistance = 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12

Total resistance = 96 Ohms.

The total resistance of the circuit will be "96 Ω".

Resistance and Current:

Resistance: The amount of resistance to current flow throughout an electrical circuit.

Current: The movement of electrical charge carriers such as electrons has been referred to as current. The flow of current seems to be from negative (-) to positively (+) locations.

According to the question,

Resistance = 12 Ω

No. of resistor = 8

The total resistance be:

= [tex]Resistance\times Number \ of \ resistors[/tex]

By substituting the values,

= [tex]12\times 8[/tex]

= [tex]96 \ \Omega[/tex]

Thus the above answer is right.
