If additional resistance is connected in parallel with a circuit the supply voltage will decrease?


What happens to supply voltage if additional resistance is connected in parallel circuit?

No change in supply voltage as additional resistance is connected in parallel circuit.

When 2 resistors are connected in parallel r1r2 are?

Two resistors connected in parallel are 1/2 the sum of their resistance. The resistance of two resistors connected in series is the sum of their resistance. For example: The total resistance of a 100 ohm resistor connected to a 200 ohm resistor in parallel is 100+200 divided by 2 = 150 ohms. The total resistance of a 100 ohm resistor connected to a 200 ohm resistor in series 100+200= 300 ohms.


Is a ammeter connected in series or in parallel with the circuit under test?

An ammeter is connected in series. A voltmeter is connected in parallel. ammeter should always be connected in series instead of parallel becoz it is a low resistance device and we know that resistance is inversly proportional to current so more current will pass through it and if it is connected in parallel than it may get damaged


A piece of copper wire was cut into n equal parts these parts are connected in parallel how will the resistance of the parallel combination compare with the resistance of the wire?

The resulting resistance of the parallel combination will be the resistance of the original wire divided by n squared.


What is a resistance network?

A resistance 'network' consists of a number of resistors connected together in series, or in parallel, or in series-parallel, or as a complex circuit. A 'complex' circuit is one that is not series, parallel, or series-parallel.


Why shunt resistance is connected in the parallel?

Shunt means parallel only..................


Which of the coil of the wattmeter has high resistance?

The voltage (or 'potential') coil has the higher resistance, because it is connected in parallel with the load.


What is a resistor bank?

In simple way resistor bank contains number of resistors in series or parallel combination. They are connected in parallel to decrease the resistance and increase current rating and power dissipation.And they are connected in series to increase resistance and power dissipation.
