If I have a 100 ohm/0.25 watt resistor in my circuit I can dissipate 0.25 watts safely across the resistor \(\frac{{V^2}}{R}\). But what if I have two resistors... I now have 50 ohms, but how much power can I dissipate? What about multiple resistors of different values...?
Any help appreciated. This is not homework, this is for a project to make my own oscilloscope.
