What is the difference between Ohms and Ohms CT in impedance of an audio transformer?

The difference in between Ohms and Ohms CT is that in Ohms CT it has CT at the end.


How do you calculate 1.67 ohms?

ohms law.


What is the total resistance of a 6-ohm resistor and a 12-ohm resistor in a parallel series?

In series like so ---6 ohms ---- 12 ohms --- , the total resistance is just 6 ohms + 12 ohms.assuming you mean in parallel like this:_|---6 ohms-----|-|~|-_|---12 ohms---|then the resistance of this can be calculated like so:1/6 ohms + 1/12 ohms = 1/R (where R is the resistance of the circuit as a whole)2/12 ohms + 1/12 ohms = 1/R3/12 ohms = 1/R1/4 ohms = 1/Rso R = 4 ohmsA few notes, if the resistors are in parallel the total resistance will always be less than or equal to the lowest resistance in parallel (i.e 6 ohms in parallel with 12 ohms will have resistance less than 6 ohms).Also if two resistances in parallel are the same, then the resistance is half of the resistance of both resistors (i.e. 1/2 ohms + 1/2 ohms = 1/R; 1 = 1/R, R=1 ohm which is half of 2 ohms).This process can be extended to 2 or more resistors in parallel.i.e if we had a 6 ohm, 6 ohm and 12 ohm resistor in parallel we could go1/6 ohms + 1/6 ohms + 1/12 ohms = 1/R(1/6 ohms + 1/6 ohms) + 1/12 ohms = 1/R1/3 ohms + 1/12 ohms = 1/R4/12ohms + 1/12 ohms = 1/R5/12 ohms = 1/Rso R = 12/5 ohms or 2.4 ohms

yes.


What is 47 kilo ohms in mega ohms?

The answer is .047Megohms. 1kilo ohm is 1,000 ohms. 1mega ohm is 1,000,000 ohms. Just move the decimal over to convert.

What is 3000 ohms in k ohms?

3000 ohms are 3 kiloohms.


What is 97 k ohms in ohms?

97 k ohms is equivalent to 97,000 ohms. Just multiply the value in kiloohms by 1,000 to convert it to ohms.


Do multiply or divide convert kohms to ohms?

Ohms are smaller than k-ohms, so number of ohms must be a bigger number. Multiply k-ohms by 1,000 to get the same resistance in ohms.
