What else can I help you with?
Does a parallel circuit have only one path for an electric charge to follow?
No, a parallel circuit has more than one path for the electric charge to follow. Each branch in a parallel circuit has its own separate path connecting the components to the power source, allowing the current to flow through multiple paths simultaneously.
What is special about electric current in a series circuit?
In a series circuit the current remains the same throughout the circuit. This is not the case for parallel circuits.
What are the parts of parallel circuit?
Simple parts of a circuit are switches, light bulb, battery and connecting wires.
How many routes can an electric current go in?
An electric current can flow through multiple routes simultaneously in a parallel circuit. In a series circuit, the current has only one path to follow. The number of available routes for an electric current depends on the circuit configuration.
How are series circuit and parallel circuits?
For parallel circuit, there's bronchus which mean the electric current'd have to choose which path to go. There's a main loop and more than one bronchus.If the bulb in one of the bronchus break down,the other bulbs would still light up. For series circuit,there's only one path for the electric current to flow through.If one of the bulb breaks down,the other'd go out as well. The electric current of evbery bulb in a series circuit is the same while the electric current of bulb in parallel circuit are not the same. The sum of the bronchus in a parallel circuit is equal to the main loop's.The more bulbs in a path,the more resistance will there be and less brighter it will be.A larger current will flow through the path with lower resistance so te brightness of the bulb of the bronchus will hace differences asc well.
What arrangement of three cells would result in the greatest electric current?
I haven't studied this for awhile, but... I assume by cell, you mean a voltage supply, like a battery. It depends on what else is in the circuit. If your circuit has a typical amount of resistance, then connecting the cells in series (as opposed to in parallel) will result in the largest voltage. Higher voltage means greater current across a resistor. However, if the resistance of the circuit is very low (like in a short circuit), then your batteries' own internal resistance may be the most significant factor, and batteries arranged in parallel may be able to sustain a higher current.
What is a current circuit?
A current circuit refers to a closed path through which electric current flows. It is formed by connecting various electrical components, such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors, with conducting wires. The current circuit allows the flow of electric charges, usually in the form of electrons, from the power source to the load.
What is the part of a circuit that connects or disconnects the circuit?
Switches, fuses and circuit breakers are examples of some of the electrical parts which can connect or disconnect a circuit to a source of current. A diode does it for alternating current, but only for one half of each cycle. "Connecting" allows an electric current to flow through the circuit. "Disconnecting" stops an electric current from flowing through the circuit.
Why does electric bulb become dim when electric heater in parallel circuit is switched on?
The electric heater draws some of the electrical current in the circuit, which reduces the current available for the electric bulb. This leads to a decrease in the brightness of the bulb as it is receiving less power.
How is a circuit constructed with five resistors and a battery as shown?
A circuit with five resistors and a battery is constructed by connecting the resistors in series or parallel to create a closed loop for the flow of electric current from the battery through the resistors. The battery provides the energy for the current to flow through the resistors, which resist the flow of current. The arrangement of the resistors and the battery determines the overall resistance and current flow in the circuit.
What are the differences between a series and parallel circuit when connecting batteries?
In a series circuit, batteries are connected end-to-end, increasing the total voltage but keeping the same current. In a parallel circuit, batteries are connected side-by-side, keeping the same voltage but increasing the total current.
What is a circuit with two or more branches for current to flow called?
Parallel circuit
