Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the effect on the total resistance when more resistors are added in series?
  • Step 1: Understand what a resistor is. A resistor is a component that resists the flow of electric current.
  • Step 2: Know what 'series' means. When resistors are in series, they are connected one after the other in a single path.
  • Step 3: Remember that in a series circuit, the total resistance is the sum of all individual resistances.
  • Step 4: If you add more resistors in series, you are adding more resistance to the circuit.
  • Step 5: Therefore, the total resistance increases as you add more resistors in series.
