00:02Hello friends, in every lesson we learn, there's an opportunity to change the world for the better.
00:09Several resistors are connected as shown in the figure.
00:14Now, we're asked to calculate their equivalent resistance.
00:21Previously, we learned about equivalent resistance in series and parallel circuits.
00:26How about we jump right into this problem?
00:30A straight cable can be bent into any shape.
00:35It can also be lengthened or shortened.
00:40Consider the cable connecting these two resistors.
00:44This cable can be shaped like this.
00:49It's clear that these two resistors are connected in series.
00:54The equivalent resistance of resistors connected in series is the sum of the resistances of each resistor.
01:03Now, these two resistors are connected in parallel.
01:08Their equivalent resistance can be calculated using this equation.
01:13This is correct.
01:17Each resistor has a resistance of 12 ohms.
01:23Up to this point, we only need math skills.
01:27Simply make the denominators of the sum of the fractions the same.
01:31One over our equivalent is 3 over 24.
01:38From here, our equivalent is 8 ohms.
01:43Overall, this resistor circuit is equivalent to an 8 ohm resistor.
01:50Happy learning, everyone!
01:51Happy learning, everyone!
01:51One over our in the list...
01:53My turn, don't try any vowels.
