What wattage of heaters would you use if 2 are wired in series with 120 vac to equal same as 2 heaters of 210 wattage each wired in parallel?
-- Two loads ... each of which dissipates 210 watts on a 120V supply ...
when wired in parallel, dissipate 420 watts.
-- Two others in series also want to dissipate 420 watts, so each of those
dissipates 210 watts on a 60V supply.
Power dissipated is proportional to the square of the voltage, so on a 120V supply,
each of these would dissipate 840 watts .

What is a quadrilateral a pair of parallel and a pair of equal sides?
A quadrilateral has four sides that may or may not be equal or parallel If two sides are parallel and the other sides equal but not parallel it is a trapezoid
Does the parallel side of a trapezoid equal?
The parallel sides of a trapezoid are of different lengths.
Does a trapezium have any equal sides?
It can do. The non-parallel sides of an isosceles trapezium will be equal. Also, one of the non-parallel sides could be equal to one of the parallel sides.
Why must the opposite sides of a parallelogram be equal in length?
Because if they were parallel but not equal, the other two sides would not be parallel.
What is a quadrilateral with 1 pair of parallel lines and have no equal lines?
A quardrilateral with 1 pair of parallel lines and have no equal sides is a trapezium.
What is the ratio of equivalent resistance of series and parallel combination of n equal resistance to the equivalent resistance on parallel combination?
The ratio of the equivalent resistance of series combination to the parallel combination of n equal resistors is (n^2 - 1)/n.
How does voltage and resistance behave in a series and a parallel circuit?
The current through each resistor is equal to the voltage across it divided by its resistance for series and parallel circuits.
What happens to amperage in series and parallel circuits?
In series circuits, amperage is the same at all points along the circuit. In parallel circuits, the total amperage is equal to the sum of the currents flowing through each branch.
Will a series win between a series circuit and a parallel circuit?
No,a parallel will win because it has more power and had equal number of energy!AnswerNeither will 'win'. Each has advantages/disadvantages compared with the other -it depends upon their application. Parallel circuits don't necessarily 'have more power' and an 'equal number of energy' (sic).
What load would 2 sets of 4 ohm speakers equal?
4ohms in series,2ohms in parallel.
Can 3 of four batteries be wired up in series and 1 in parallel. Will this setup drain the parallel battery?
No it will impose the voltage of the three series batteries across the terminals of the paralleled battery. Batteries can only be parallel when all of the voltage potentials are near equal.
What are the laws of series and parallel connection?
1.In series connection the total resistance is equal the total number of resistor that was connected in series 2.the current is constant in a series connection 3.in a series connection total voltage is equal the number of of volt per cells
What happens to voltages and currents when there are passive elements connected in series and in parallel?
In a series circuit the current flow in each element is equal but voltage across the each element is differ. In a parallel circuit the voltage across the each element is equal but current flow in each element is differ.
How are circuits connected when you are using more than one battery?
The batteries can be connected in parallel or in series. In parallel, good batteries of the same voltage will have a total voltage across them equal to the voltage across one of them. Those batteries in series will have a total voltage equal to the sum of the voltage of each of the batteries.
How does series resonance differ from parallal resonance?
In series resonance, the inductance and the capacitance are connected in series, but in parallel resonance they are connected in parallel. In series resonance, at an input signal with a frequency equal to resonance frequency, the total impedance of both inductive and capacitive elements together is zero (or they appear as short circuits) unlike the parallel resonance case in which it is infinite and they appear as an open circuit.
What is a quadrilateral with 4 parallel sides?
It is not possible to have a quadrilateral with four parallel sides - this would bea series of four parallel lines that do not intersect.A quadrilateral with four sides of equal length is a rhombus, however.And a quadrilateral with 2 pairs of parallel sides is a parallelogram.
Three equal resistors connected in series across a voltage source dissipate a power of 10W what sould be the power desipated if same resistors are connected in parallel?
If three equal resistors are connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance will be one-third of the resistance in series. This lower resistance will result in a higher current flowing through the resistors when connected in parallel compared to when they are in series. Therefore, the power dissipated by the resistors in parallel will be greater than 10W.
