Best explanation, no shortcuts which is what the beginner needs! Though a tip that helps me, as I am learning R4 could be termed Resistance Equivalent or Req for diffentiation purposes. Thank you!

hey, I need some help, how would you go about finding out a missing resistor in a parallel circuit, For example: You have a Rt 48ohm and R1 120ohm, how do I figure out what R2 would be? Please helpppp (I love your channel, found it at 2:00am whilst revising)

[@sparkyhelp3997]

1/R2 = 1/RT - 1/R1 hope this helps, please like share and subscribe.

[@bryanmamugay1215]

series circuit has only one whole continuity main power supply while parallel circuit will be fraction or accurate for each load

[@sparkyhelp3997]

You're absolutely right! Series circuits have that single pathway for current, while parallel circuits allow for individual control of each load. Great observation! Please share with like minded people or even like and subscribe.

[@lyca8473]

for the second example the answer for r4 is 14.58 where did you get 14.22 from?

[@sparkyhelp3997]

Hi yes it is 14.22, the resistor value is 33 not 35, I even just looked at it and put in 35 and come up with the answer you got sorry for that the resistor looks like 35 in the drawing, see values listed you can see it is 33 and I have put 33 in the calculator. hope that clears things up.

[@jased8727]

Why did you not calculate the voltage in R1(V1) and subtract it from the total voltage to get the voltage drop(Vp) across the parallel circuit ( V1= It * R1= 4.13A*10ohms=41.3V then Vp= Vt-V1= 100-41.3= 58.7V) will get the same answers.

[@sparkyhelp3997]

I know, I was trying to show different possibilities, as I say to students know multiple techniques and different formulas is like having a range a range of screwdrivers all will work but some may be better suited for a particular task. You may use whatever correct method you can think of - it is up to you with the information you have at hand. I hope it has still helped - if it confirms what you already know then it has helped.

Hi mate, how would I put this into a question, I basically need to make my own series and parallel circuit but I don’t know how to work the question

[@sparkyhelp3997]

Change the values and work through the same calculations as in the video but use your own values. Does that answer your question? I do have other videos on the same topic - have a look. Please Like, Share & Subscribe.

how to find the V2 and the V3?

[@sparkyhelp3997]

The Voltage across the parallel part will be the same voltage i.e. V1 will be the same voltage across R2 & R3 voltage across R1 can be found by using ohm's law V=IT x R1 Hope that helps check out the following this may help kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIO9e4yZbKiErcUsi=HJun4SFvo_ppMC2d Please Like and share with like minded people, or maybe even subscribe.

[@TheBhagwaBoy]

This was the easiest circuit here at 10th standard in India

[@sparkyhelp3997]

Is that Good? - it was meant to be easy but only if you know how to do it. It is all in the method which can be applied to all circuits.

[@dustinkittel2830]

1/50+1/50 doesn't equal 25 ohms. You have to take the reciprical of the sum... 1/(1/50+1/50)=25

[@sparkyhelp3997]

Hi, Yes I know that's why the answer is 1/Rt or 1/R4 in this case - but thanks for the input.
