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.
No. Since the switch is in series with the circuit, opening it blocks the current flow through the circuit, turning it off.
Removing a bulb - or opening the switch - breaks the flow of current in a series circuit.
A voltage or current source in series with a circuit breaker or fuse in series with a switch in series with a light bulb.
For an electrical circuit to keep going, it cannot be interrupted. When the switch is adjusted, the electrical flow is interrupted. Move the switch again and the flow is restored. Without a switch a circuit is no longer considered a complete circuit. Simple fifth grade science.
Because The opening of any switch in a series circuit will open the circuit and stop the flow of current to the load
The most common form of a series circuit in a house is a circuit breaker (optionally in series with an on-off switch) in series with a load, usually a light bulb.
If you add a second resistor, the resistance of series circuit will increase.
An AC wall switch is in series within the parallel circuit of the overall house wiring.
You raise the total resistance by that amount if added in series to a circuit. If you add them in parallel to a circuit then that total resistance will be less than the total of the added circuit.
a switch and a capacitor which is connected in series with the switch
