What resistance must be connected in parallel to 6.0-ohm resistor to reduce the combined resistance to 15-ohm?
No such resistor exists. Any resistor placed in parallel with a 6.0 ohm resistor is going to reduce the combined resistance below 6.0 ohms.
If a 15-ohm resistor is connected in parallel with a 30 ohm-resistor the equivalent resistance is?
Rt = 10
What is a resistor bank?
In simple way resistor bank contains number of resistors in series or parallel combination. They are connected in parallel to decrease the resistance and increase current rating and power dissipation.And they are connected in series to increase resistance and power dissipation.
A resistor of 10k ohms resistance with tolerance of 5 percent is connected in parallel with another resistor of 5k ohms resistance and 10 percent tolerance.what is tolerance limit of parallel network?
6.67%
Voltmeter is connected in parallel with resistor?
A voltmeter can be connected in parallel with a resistor to show the voltage across the resistor.
When 2 resistors are connected in parallel r1r2 are?
Two resistors connected in parallel are 1/2 the sum of their resistance. The resistance of two resistors connected in series is the sum of their resistance. For example: The total resistance of a 100 ohm resistor connected to a 200 ohm resistor in parallel is 100+200 divided by 2 = 150 ohms. The total resistance of a 100 ohm resistor connected to a 200 ohm resistor in series 100+200= 300 ohms.

What will happen to the other resistor if the number of resistor decreases?
the voltage across that resistor will increase if it is in series with the other resistors. the current through that resistor will increase if it is in parallel with the other resistors.

Resistors A and B are connected in parallel If resistor B has twice the resistance of A what is the current taken by resistor B?
half of the current flowing thru resistor 1.... V=IR.
When a resistor is connected in parallel what happens to the size of current form the battery?
When a resistor is added the current goes down, that is expressed in the equation current= voltage/ resistance
A 120 ohm resistor a 60 ohm resistor and a 40 ohm resistor are connected in parallel to a 120 volt power source. What is the effective resistance of the three resistors?
The effective resistance of those three resistors in parallel is 20 ohms. And it makes no difference what the power source is, or whether they're even connected to a power source at all. As soon as those three resistors are in parallel, their effective resistance is 20 ohms immediately, even if they're still in the drawer.
When two identical cells are connected either in series or parallel across a 2 ohm resistor they send the same current through it calculate the internal resistance of each cell?
If two identical cells connected in series or parallel send the same current through a 2 ohm resistor, then the internal resistance of each cell would be 1 ohm. This is because when connected in series, the total resistance seen by each cell is 1 ohm, meaning half of it comes from the internal resistance of one cell. The same logic applies when connected in parallel.
Will current flow in a higher resistance or in lower resistance if they are connected in parallel to a voltage source?
Current will always flow in both resistors, but the one with the lower resistance will have more current flow through it. The value of the current in each resistor is calculated by dividing the voltage of the source by the resistance of the individual resistor. As long as the capability of the power source isn't exceeded, the current through each resistor isn't affected by the presence of the other resistor. Said another way, if two resistors are connected in parallel across a source, neither one "cares" that the other resistor is connected across the source. The two resistors work independently.
