In what type of circuit will the equivalent resistance be less than the resistors in the circuit?

Parallel circuit

Explanation:

When components are connected in parallel, the voltage across each component is same and different current flows in each path depending upon the resistance of the component. The equivalent resistance of the circuit is less than the individual resistances.

Let there be two resistors connected in parallel R and R' connected across voltage source V.

Current through R is I and through R' is I'

Net current in the circuit:

I'' = I +I'

From Ohm's law, V = I R

V/R'' = V/R + V/R'

Where R" is the equivalent resistance of the circuit

1/R" =1/R + 1/R'

Thus, the equivalent resistance of a parallel circuit is less than the individual resistances.

explanation:

earth's surface is mainly heated by the absorption of infrared radiation from the sun.

evaporation occurs because molecules in liquid water are warmed ( usually by the sun) and vibrate quicker, becoming less dense and rise.

condensation occurs because molecules in water vapor are cooled and therefore vibrate more slowly thus becoming more dense and eventually fall to earth.

lines of equal barometric pressure on a weather map are called: isobars : lines of equal temp on a weather map are called: isotherms.​
