Question

A series circuit contains a 10 ohm resistor and a 50 ohm Resistor. What is the total resistance?

Answer 1

Answer:

60Ω

Explanation:

Resistances in series add up, it's the ones in parallel you've got to watch out for.

Answer 2

Answer:60ohms

Explanation: for resistors in series,

RT= R1+R2+R3+...+Rn

so therefore from the question above, RT = 10+50= 60ohms
