Referring to figure "B" of the illustration, what statement is true? Illustration EL-0020
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C. The order of resistors connected in a series string has no impact on the total resistance. The sum of the individual resistances is the total resistance of the circuit, regardless of the order in which they are connected.
This is because in a series circuit, the same current flows through each resistor, and the total resistance is the sum of the individual resistances. The order of the resistors does not affect the total resistance, as long as they are all connected in series.
The other options are incorrect because they suggest that the order of the resistors can impact the total resistance, which is not the case in a series circuit.
