May 30, 2012 at 11:01 comment added user924 Ross asks more about topology of 2 parts of divider than about properties of single part. Are they serial or parallel or is it behaving only to degree of single half?. Property is well identified already, as question involves the correct term (Johnson noise).
May 30, 2012 at 10:37 comment added user924 Thank you. Just tried to provide quick answer when person presented a "quick" question. The orthogonality is just part of what can be omitted in haste. There is more to miss there: bandwidth, concept of AC, does a cable or free space with equivalent impedance have johnson noise properties, etc.
May 30, 2012 at 8:39 comment added stevenvh Like I just explained to clabacchio (comment to my answer) I think your answer is incomplete. You don't say how high the noise level of the 5k is, users may get the idea that it's half that of a 10k, which isn't the case.
