Calculating resistance in parallel

A worked example of how to calculate resistance in parallel circuits.

[@jamest3373]

Best explanation so far. Easy to understand and calculate

[@woods240]

Best teacher ever. This guy taught me at my school for all of year 8.

[@godisgay2642]

Huh

[@user-si4mg2gc9t]

I need to contact him.... Please 🙏

[@zhiyarmazin2838]

So simple, a video that filled all of the gaps in my studies for my exam

[@Mattyzer0]

exactly yes

[@bronobro1292]

I’m confused do you have to flip the fraction to get your final answer?

[@esquit6423]

@@bronobro1292 Yes you do, i was confused too but then i realised you do

[@user-ye4lq7fl7d]

I left with confusion

[@ef7480]

watch again on half speed. Denominator at the bottom, has to be the same before adding them up.
Your pizza is a good reference for fractions before you stuff your face.

[@Marius-xn6qb]

Mister plowton I passed my test because of your help thank u

[@sammysgoldenhour]

Wouldn’t it work with making the denominator 6 since 2 and 3 go into 6 as well?

[@omarsafwan689]

It will work

[@theeprodigy3063]

Exactly what I was thinking

[@TunedForkYT]

Yeah, it was kinda hard to watch

[@1962salsa]

with Fractions you always go with the Least Common Denominator which is 6... you are correct.

[@silverflames5860]

Yes but you'd lose marks for not following the equation.

[@marcrademaker4136]

When you look at the three fractions, 6 is divisible by the three denominators of every individual fraction, then you must use 6 as the new denominator instead of 12. The calculation of the Total ∑ Resistance will become: ½ + ⅙ + ⅓ = ³/₆ + ⅙ + ²/₆ = ⁶/₆ = 1Ωhm

[@SupremeWaffle2021]

Man... It's all the same. Even if it's not the lowest common denominator, it functions essentially the same. 12/12 is the same as 6/6.

[@markharrisllb]

Brilliant, you video went at the perfect speed with just the right amount of information. Thank you.

[@halalbro911]

agree

[@Atrusino]

Thank you! Resistance in parallel circuits has been driving me bonkers.

[@GoodnessMarcel-dk4iq]

Awesome 😎😎. The content of this video is so understandable. My teacher taught me this and it seemed a little complex and I have not had time to actually check the steps again from my 📚📚 so I decided to look for a video. This video taught me in less than 20min and I totally understand 😮.

[@the.dialogue41]

You are a life saver. I have e final Physical science exam tomorrow and this was the only thing I did not know throughout my whole work. I love you so much right.
I am a straight A student in Physics so when ever I don't smell my 90% I freak out way too much

[@Nomad_Wanderer]

I can't imagine how you get 90%

[@anumisha2302]

This is the best explanation I found on this

[@mountris7can]

great explanation!!Videos like this one make me have a desire of reaching back the past years where I was a student of Technological Electronics Institution here in Greece,I had never had graduated from it to take my diploma .Regrets of old times...God bless you Sir!!The answear for the last one is 1.63Ohms

[@casstheaddict4686]

Needed this to study for the ASVAB, thank you lots.

[@JohnCena-gr1zs]

howd it go?

[@austinqie636]

Just a question, when you tried to find out the common denominator why didn't you just use 6? 2*3 is 6. It's more simple to use a single digit rather than a double digit right? This is just me giving my opinion btw. I would've found it easier if it was a single digit.

[@1962salsa]

yup He's wrong the least common denominator rule in fractions doesn't change so 6 is correct

[@peepshowbaybay]

I’ve never had it explained so easy so I definately appreciated that

[@virtualcity721]

1.63 ohms for the last question

[@AlvaroGuimajr.]

Finally a good explication!!!
Thank you so much 😭🙏

[@binyammamo6454]

Maann! thank you for short and perfect explanation ever.

[@hotrodmercury3941]

Thank god someone can explain it visually..im studying for my A&P and this keeps hanging me up

[@laragouveia7510]

thank you, you the only one i saw do this sooo thankful

[@sachuscinemapedia5813]

Very very very very good explanation
Very very very useful

[@parkjieun9846]

why do you flip over numerator and denominator to get total Resistance?

[@sherwincolaco3155]

Omggggg
Thanks I just realised how trash my teachers are

[@ekerothsamuel6385]

Thank you so much! I previously didn't know how to do this!

[@AgrimotiveFarmMachinery]

Why did you not use 6 as your common denominator?

[@whome7706]

Thankyouuy sooo much🙏 .saw first-time yur video!! Totally amazed!

[@Mr102373]

Thanks for the video been awhile seen I have done any of this, forgotten all of it.

[@DrawwithAnnu1583]

Very easy topics in physics🙏

[@saniyaseemungal4700]

Thank you so much! This really helped a lot!

[@IzoKey-iy9zq]

Thanks your for teaching me

[@SachaWaterer]

How would this work for 3 resistors in parallel at 25,15,37

[@jomac_ph]

Thank you, not I can stop pulling my hjair out after 40 mins of scrolling and watching

[@olitheking1351]

thank you so much, you made me realize and understand this so much faster then my teachers explaining this, your a true legendery teacher, thank you ones again I truly appriciate it

[@Joh750]

I want to setup a parallel network with 20 3mm white LEDs which max voltage for each is 3.2v. Therefore that makes 64v. Which resistor can I use? 64v is how many watts? in order to get a good power supply

[@kamrenwilliams2103]

This is soooooo helpful

[@bigcatsliontiger]

People find hard to find common deminator of mutiple numbers so they can convert each of them in decimel and then 1/ That number

[@youhavefaith289]

So useful, thank you very much!!

[@slowpokemongeek]

what if all numbers dont have a number that it can go into.

[@aaronwhoelse6351]

I’m getting 1.63 for the last question

[@3skoda_n00b8]

1.64
You have to round properly

[@codmqxrdragon5429]

How show solution

[@codmqxrdragon5429]

Im getting 11/18 but dont know how to turn to ohms

[@user-gd1od5ho1e]

Still not clear on how you came up 6,2,4 as the numerators anyone to clarify

[@shaziakhan5153]

Tq so much seeing before 1day of exam😂

[@colinreilly3398]

what if you have denominators that you cant find a common denominator? dealing with 20, 24, and 35 and i cant find a common denominator

[@lekhanadevang613]

Thank you so much sir 🙏🏻

[@merazulstudies3284]

You made it easy pizy!

[@JamesJames-cj3kw]

Why common denominator is not 6?

[@sympetrum667]

what if 1 resistor is missing? for example, r1 is missing but the r2 and r3 is given

[@bradleypatrick79]

when you had 8 over 12 why do you have to flip it instead of having .75ohms?

[@jassandranolen7140]

That’s the original way to do it. You have to get Rt from the denominator So to do that you flip it. It didn’t matter the first time because any number over it’s self it’s the same flipped this is still 1

[@jassandranolen7140]

Go watch this video it explains in better terms… m.th-cam.com/video/wGKwEPFXIHs/w-d-xo.html

[@user-ds9vt6sv4c]

Thank you very much

[@jayeshb1212]

1.63

[@owainlewis1099]

Thank you

[@fairisfairfairisfair9788]

What about product over sum?

[@ihabmurshed4285]

thank you i finally understand

[@user-xv1sg3zp6c]

Why did i get 1.63 for the last question when i did the exact same working out that was in the video?
But great video : )

[@yesidek]

cz he rounded the ans up to 1.64

[@tymonvandiemen7279]

HELP: why is the first answer 1 ohm and the second answer 1.5 ohm

[@adarshgupta7758]

Thank you very much sir 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@ntwadumela_]

6 was already common....

[@hs96r]

thank you :)

[@LordLorenzo834]

1 divided by each resistance then add them up that makes 1 ohm. Why did you do the other strange step

[@tymonvandiemen7279]

I have the same question

[@shanksre6186]

Thank you.

[@abieladanga3111]

Interesting

[@usmanbashir83]

❤❤❤ thanks

[@user-jj2kk9tj7q]

Please I don't understand
How 2+3+6 gv u 12

[@karsonelsanto]

why 12 and not 6

[@dearsara99]

Superb sir may Allah subhanahu Va taala bless u with iman

[@sophymsimanga4694]

Thank u very much man

[@Dinco422]

Thanks.

[@ifuckedup5323]

Thank you sir 😊

[@TYLERCEO-bk2gb]

couldve u just made the 2 a 6 and it would have be 3/6 instead of 6/12

[@tirumalagadey7548]

The LCM will 6 not 12🤔🤔

[@NoahAyelework]

❤❤❤❤

[@chiangelakoani5339]

The sum of the denominators 2+6+3 is supposed to be 11 and not 12

[@rishii_editz]

I don't understand ur LCM 🤔

[@sergedistellouzolo3703]

Because all the denominator can go into 12

[@gokulg4563]

Machana poile class

[@ashlinytoldchannel]

Ente macha 😂

[@ashik67988]

Fentastic 🫂

[@jordanbodden5422]

I don't get it at all

[@sanjayray9309]

Thank you soooo much

[@DelaxDARO]

Engineer students when fractions

[@moussi22]

This is literally useless if the resistance values are uneven.

[@pipoy4886]

what if the resistance is in thousands

[@beardtrick]

Then you pray 🙏🏻

[@kristjankuningas1066]

thanks

[@sagave0]

perfect❤

[@IndianArmy-dn2wm]

Thank you🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 sir

[@akshayranjith5817]

Thanks

[@itsmeytk]

Really thnx bro u solved my doubt . Vibes from me to get 1M subscribers

[@user-iw5op1id6u]

1.64 ohm

[@smartinventor6746]

Thanks a lot 😂

[@joeytr0924]

U legend

[@agwuc.favour6635]

Please your write up cover's most of the write up 😭😭😭😭

[@mephistopheles3699]

What if R¹=4 R²=7 R³=9

[@noone-yi4rs]

Last answer is 2ohms

[@iloveAllah7]

1.67 oh

[@MJocean01]

NOT CLEARED

[@bigsassyster]

This is not the proper way to go about solving for parallel resistance. The example is simple, because this method is the only time to use it for this. I encourage people to do it the proper way, because it will make more sense in your classes in the future.

[@cintaantony]

Why can't you just take 6🙄

[@PaKiKiNg908]

thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[@jasondonnelly8940]

Or just 6 and keep it easy

[@yumefanfare]

idk what this means but we 🆙

[@Malikrehan_A_M]

1.9ohm
