    The equivalent resistance when two resistors are connected in series is

    the sum of their individual resistances.

    The marking on the resistor that says "1000 W" is the rating that tells

    how much power the resistor can safely dissipate, without overheating

    or exploding. (The 'W' stands for 'Watts'.) It doesn't tell us anything about

    their individual resistances. So we don't have enough information to calculate

    their series equivalent.
