Brief explanation of the internal functioning of the Resistor and why it generates heat .
-
Series Association:
-
R_eq = R_1 + R_2 + R_n.
-
-
Parallel Association:
-
1/R_eq = 1/R_1 + 1/R_2 + 1/R_n.

Explanation about the functioning and construction of the Resistors below - EngineeringMindset .
-
With fixed value: 'Generic Resistor', 'Precision Resistor', 'Power Resistor', 'SMD' (Surface Mount Device Resistor / Super-small resistors mounted on boards);
-
With variable value: 'Potentiometer', 'Rheostat', 'Varistor' (variable with voltage), 'Thermistor' (variable with temperature), 'LDR' (Light Dependent Resistors / Light Dependent Resistors), Strain Gauge / Deformation Resistor.
