Before starting with the problem, let's remind that:

- Total resistance of a combination of resistors in series is:

R_T=R_1+R_2+....

- Total resistance of a combination of resistors in parallel is given by:

$\frac{1}{R_T}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+...$

Now let's apply these equations to solve the different parts of the problem:

1. All the resistors in series: $15.8 \Omega$

In this case, the total resistance is

$R_T=6.50\Omega +7.60\Omega+1.70\Omega=15.8 \Omega$

2. All the resistors are connected in parallel: $1.14 \Omega$

In this case, the total resistance is

$\frac{1}{R_T}=\frac{1}{6.50 \Omega}+\frac{1}{7.60 \Omega}+\frac{1}{1.70 \Omega}=0.874\Omega^{-1}\\R_T=\frac{1}{0.874 \Omega^{-1}}=1.14 \Omega$

3. The 6.50 Ω and 7.60 Ω resistors are connected in parallel, and the 1.70-Ω resistor is connected in series with the parallel combination: $5.20 \Omega$

The total resistance of the two resistors connected in parallel is

$\frac{1}{R_T}=\frac{1}{6.50 \Omega}+\frac{1}{7.60\Omega}=0.285\Omega^{-1}\\R_T=\frac{1}{0.285 \Omega^{-1}}=3.50 \Omega$

And the combination of these with the other resistor of 1.70-Ω in series gives a total resistance of

$R_T=3.50 \Omega+1.70 \Omega=5.20 \Omega$

4. The 6.50 Ω and 1.70 Ω resistors are connected in parallel, and the 7.60-Ω resistor is connected in series with the parallel combination: $8.95 \Omega$

The total resistance of the two resistors connected in parallel is

$\frac{1}{R_T}=\frac{1}{6.50 \Omega}+\frac{1}{1.70\Omega}=0.742\Omega^{-1}\\R_T=\frac{1}{0.742 \Omega^{-1}}=1.35 \Omega$

And the combination of these with the other resistor of 7.60-Ω in series gives a total resistance of

$R_T=1.35 \Omega+7.60 \Omega=8.95 \Omega$

5. The 7.60 Ω and 1.70 Ω resistors are connected in parallel, and the 6.50-Ω resistor is connected in series with the parallel combination: $7.89\Omega$

The total resistance of the two resistors connected in parallel is

$\frac{1}{R_T}=\frac{1}{7.60 \Omega}+\frac{1}{1.70\Omega}=0.720\Omega^{-1}\\R_T=\frac{1}{0.720 \Omega^{-1}}=1.39 \Omega$

And the combination of these with the other resistor of 6.50-Ω in series gives a total resistance of

$R_T=1.39 \Omega+6.50 \Omega=7.89 \Omega$

6. The 6.50 Ω and 7.60 Ω resistors are connected in series, and the 1.70-Ω resistor is connected in parallel with the series combination: $1.52 \Omega$

In this case, the total resistance of the two resistors in series is

$R_T=6.50\Omega + 7.60\Omega=14.10 \Omega$

And the combination of these with the other resistor of 1.70-Ω in parallel gives a total resistance of

$\frac{1}{R_T}=\frac{1}{14.10 \Omega}+\frac{1}{1.70\Omega}=0.659\Omega^{-1}\\R_T=\frac{1}{0.720 \Omega^{-1}}=1.52 \Omega$

7. The 6.50 Ω and 1.70 Ω resistors are connected in series, and the 7.60-Ω resistor is connected in parallel with the series combination: $3.94 \Omega$

In this case, the total resistance of the two resistors in series is

$R_T=6.50\Omega + 1.70\Omega=8.20 \Omega$

And the combination of these with the other resistor of 7.60-Ω in parallel gives a total resistance of

$\frac{1}{R_T}=\frac{1}{8.20 \Omega}+\frac{1}{7.6\Omega}=0.254\Omega^{-1}\\R_T=\frac{1}{0.720 \Omega^{-1}}=3.94 \Omega$

8. The 7.60 Ω and 1.70 Ω resistors are connected in series, and the 6.50-Ω resistor is connected in parallel with the series combination: $3.83\Omega$

In this case, the total resistance of the two resistors in series is

$R_T=7.60\Omega + 1.70\Omega=9.30 \Omega$

And the combination of these with the other resistor of 6.50-Ω in parallel gives a total resistance of

$\frac{1}{R_T}=\frac{1}{9.30 \Omega}+\frac{1}{6.50\Omega}=0.261\Omega^{-1}\\R_T=\frac{1}{0.720 \Omega^{-1}}=3.83 \Omega$

The “death throes” of stars are amongst the most complex phenomena in all of astronomy, and the “corpses” of stars amongst the most energetic and exotic objects in existence. beginning at the end of the core helium fusion stage in a star’s life, describe in detail the post-main sequence development of both (a) a 1.0 solar mass star, and (b) a 25.0 solar mass star. in what significant ways do they differ? what role does each of these types of stars play in the "star-gas-star" cycle and the evolution of chemical elements in our galaxy?
