Total Resistance of Series/Parallel Circuit

Computes total circuit resistance using three forms of Ohm's Law: R1 = V/I, R2 = V²/P, and R3 = P/I². All three should agree for a consistent set of measurements.

Inputs

Total circuit voltage in volts

Total circuit current in amps

Total circuit power in watts

Results

Total current must be greater than zero
Total Resistance (R1)ΩResistance from voltage and current in ohms
Total Resistance (R2)ΩResistance from voltage and power in ohms
Total Resistance (R3)ΩResistance from power and current in ohms
