What is the resistance (in Ω) of thirty-seven 330 Ω resistors connected in series? 12210 Correct: Your answer is correct. Ω (b) What is the resistance (in Ω) of thirty-seven 330 Ω resistors connected in parallel?

(a) 12210  Ω

(b) 9.92 Ω

Explanation:

From Electricity,

(a)

When resistors are connected in series, the total resistance is the sum of the individual resistance.

From the question,

Rt = R1 + R2 + R3 R37 Equation 1

Where Rt = Total resistance of combined resistance, R1 = resistance of the first resistor, R2 = Resistance of the second resistor and so on up to the 37th resistor.

Note: Since The resistor are identical.

Rt = n(R) Equation 2

Where n = number of resistor, R = resistance of each resistor.

Given: n = 37, R = 330 Ω

Substitute into equation 2

Rt = 37(330)

Rt = 12210 Ω

(b)

For parallel connection,

Rt = R/n Equation 2

Given: R = 330 Ω, n = 37

Substitute into equation 2

Rt = 330/37

Rt = 8.92 Ω

Hence the resistance when connected in parallel = 9.92 Ω

specific latent heat of fusion, lf, of a substance is defined as the amount of heat required to change a unit mass of the substance from solid to liquid state, without any change in the temperature.
