Discuss how the resistance in series and parallel relate to the individual resistor values. Which had the highest slope? Which had the lowest slope? Based on your graphs and curve fit values which configuration of resistors (series or parallel) will create the largest resistance in the circuit? Is this what you observed? Use the equations from the Introduction to explain how the configuration of the circuit affects the resistance.

Let's say you have a 20 cm long silicon wire, with a diameter of 4 cm. What current flows through this wire if a 1000 V potential difference is applied to the two ends? Please enter your answer in the unit of mA. You can use 2300 Ohm.m for the resistivity of silicon.
I would love a detailed explanation for this problem. In a phasor diagram, how do we, approximately, know where Vrms will be located? It is known that Vl leads current while Vc lags current by 90 degrees. But what about Vrms in relation to current or in general?
For temperature-dependent ohmic resistors (at least the kind we're focusing on), the relationship between resistance & temperature is linear. With that in mind, compare the formula for temperature-dependent ohmic resistance to the equation for a line (y = mx + b) and determine the slope and the y-intercept for a graph of R vs. T. Your answers should be in terms of Ro, ?, & To. [NOTE: for Ro & To the subscript is a lowercase o] R = Ro[1 + ?(T − To)] slope = y-intercept =

An electronic apparatus may have large capacitors at high voltage in the power supply section, presenting a shock hazard even when the apparatus is switched off. A “bleeder resistor” is therefore placed across such a capacitor, as shown schematically in Figure, to bleed the charge from it after the apparatus is off. Why must the bleeder resistance be much greater than theeffective resistance of the rest of the circuit? How does this affect the time constant for discharging the capacitor?
