Question

  1. a series circuit has individual resistor values of 200 \\(\omega\\), 86 \\(\omega\\), 91 \\(\omega\\), 180 \\(\omega\\), and 150 \\(\omega\\). which of the following is the total resistance of the circuit?

710 \\(\omega\\)

507 \\(\omega\\)

557 \\(\omega\\)

707 \\(\omega\\)

Explanation:

Identify the given resistor values

$$ R_1 = 200\,\Omega,\ R_2 = 86\,\Omega,\ R_3 = 91\,\Omega,\ R_4 = 180\,\Omega,\ R_5 = 150\,\Omega $$

Calculate the total equivalent resistance

$$ R_{\text{total}} = R_1 + R_2 + R_3 + R_4 + R_5 $$
$$ R_{\text{total}} = 200 + 86 + 91 + 180 + 150 = 707\,\Omega $$

Answer:

  • (A) \(710\,\Omega\)
  • (B) \(507\,\Omega\)
  • (C) \(557\,\Omega\)
  • (D) \(707\,\Omega\) (Correct answer)
