When 'n' resistances are connected in series, the value of Req is given by:
\(R_{eq}=R_1+R_2........R_n\)
When 'n' identical resistances are connected in series, the value of Req is given by:
\(R_{eq}=nR\)
When 'n' resistors are connected in parallel, the value of Req is given by:
\({1\over R_{eq}}={1\over R_1}+{1\over R_2}.........{1\over R_n}\)
When 'n' identical resistances are connected in parallel, the value of Req is given by:
\({ R_{eq}}={R\over n}\)
Calculation
Given, \(R_1=10\Omega\) and n = 10
\({1\over R_{eq}}={R\over n}\)
\({ R_{eq}}={10\over 10}\)
\({ R_{eq}}=1\Omega\)
