Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions

Question 1 Easy

What is the equivalent resistance of R1 = 4Ω and R2 = 6Ω connected in series?

💡 Hint: Add the resistances together.

Question 2 Easy

If R1 = 4Ω and R2 = 6Ω are connected in parallel, what is the equivalent resistance?

💡 Hint: Use the formula: 1/Rtotal = 1/R1 + 1/R2.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

If R1 = 5Ω, R2 = 10Ω and R3 = 1Ω are connected in series and R4 = 2Ω is in parallel with the combination. Find the total equivalent resistance.

💡 Hint: Add series first, then handle parallel.

Challenge 2 Hard

In a complex circuit where R1 = 15Ω and R2 = 25Ω are parallel, and this pair is in series with R3 = 10Ω, find the total resistance.

💡 Hint: Handle parallel then sum with series!
