The voltage drop across each resistance will go up, and the current through the circuit will go down.
The current at every point in the series circuit becomes slightly less, because the increased length of wire adds slightly more resistance to the loop.
5 ohms.
Be a little more specific. How low of a current value are you talking about? What does the circuit look like? And what components are a part of the circuit? Possibly, depending on the circuit, nothing extreme happens. You may get increased heat in the circuit due to more resistance. There are a lot of factors to weigh to answer this question...
The equivalent resistance is the overall effect all of the resistances in a circuit has. Put another way, it is the value a single resistor in a circuit would have to be in order to have the same effect as all of the resistors resistors combined in a given circuit.
when a circuit is closed, electricity can move though it.
For a series circuit such as this, simply add the resistances to get the equivalent resistance.For a series circuit such as this, simply add the resistances to get the equivalent resistance.For a series circuit such as this, simply add the resistances to get the equivalent resistance.For a series circuit such as this, simply add the resistances to get the equivalent resistance.
If the resistances to big in any circuit the circuit will become increasingly harder and eventually will break the circuit. An example of this is when the filament in an incandescent lightbulb burns out.
Resistances are additive in a series circuit.
The total resistance in a series circuit is determined by adding (summing) the individual resistances of each component in the circuit.
a circuit with many resistances.
current is constant in the series circuit. The resistances of the components add up and the potential differences is divided propotionally over the components depending on their resistances.
depends on the simple circuit. please describe it.
The flow of electrons meets an increased impedance to it's flow.
The flow of electrons meets an increased impedance to it's flow.
The resistance of a series circuit is simply the sum of the individual resistors.
when the frequency is increased the total impedance of a series RC circuit is decrease.
Series CircuitWe say Resistances are in series if the same current flows through all Resistances. A circuit containing of only series resistances is called a series circuit. A series circuit is a circuit that has the same intensity of current flow through its elements.
