An LED with 4 leads is most likely a 3 color RGB LED with one common anode lead an 3 separate cathode leads (one for the red LED, one for the green LED, one for the blue LED). If so it should be installed as 3 individual LEDs.
However, this may not be the case. It may be a special device containing an IC and one or more LEDs controlled by that IC.
In either case you will HAVE to consult the manufacturer's datasheet to correctly identify the function of the leads prior to installation (which I almost automatically assumed was obvious and forgot to mention... until I reread the question and realized that anyone that would even bother to ask such a question probably doesn't even know that datasheets exist, or they would have already answered the question themselves by reading the datasheet).

Difference between optocoupler and normal diode?
Purpose: An optocoupler (or optical isolator) uses optics to isolate one circuit from another. The diode in the optical isolator is similar to an LED. The light from this LED controls the gate or base of a transistor. A diode has two terminals, an optocouple will have at least 4. A diode is used to control current flow direction; an optocoupler main purpose is to isolate one circuit from another. etc. etc.

If a circuit has a resistance of 4 ohm's how much voltage is needed to produce a 1.4 current in the circuit?
Voltage across a resistance = (resistance) x (current through the resistance) =4 x 1.4 = 5.6If the ' 1.4 ' is Amperes of current, then the required voltage is 5.6 volts.
Would I have to use 4 resistors for 4 LEDs in a circuit?
Yes, each LED should have its own means of current limiting.
How is one light controlled by three switches?
That is called a 4 way light switch circuit. On each end of the circuit you install a 3way switch and in the middle you install a 4 way switch.Answer using British TerminologyIn the UK, 'three-way' switches are called 'two-way' switches (more logical, if you think about it!), and the 'four-way' switch is called an 'intermediate' switch.
What is the difference in a parallel circuit and a series circuit?
A series circuit is a circuit with only one pathway for electrons (electricity) to flow! And a parallel circuit has two or more pathways for electrons (electricity) to flow!If you do not agree with me ask your teacher this exact question to see if i am right or wrong. If you agree with me just read the two sentences above until you have memorized it! Okay! Great!( :a thingseries circuit has a common current and a parallel circuit has a common voltage.

What is the second function of circuit breaker?
The two functions a circuit breaker can do is protect the circuit from a high current short circuit and through its thermal trip it can protect the circuit from overload conditions. A circuit breaker will trip if too large a draw or current flow occurs across a thermal shunt inside, it can also have a ground fault circuit interrupter integrated internally in case of a difference in potential between neutral and ground resulting from voltage leakage from appliances or to protect against potential electrocutions A double circuit breaker provides access to the 2 legs of 120V in the back plane on the breaker panel. There are now typically 4 wires away from this breaker, a bare ground or earth ground, a white wire for neutral or bonded ground, a black wire for 1 leg of 120 and a red or blue wire for the 2nd leg of 120. You can use either leg and the white wire to access 120 or use the black and red/blue to access 240, white would then be used on the 3rd plug and ground goes to the ground lug or if missing it ties with the white and goes on the 3rd leg.
Who was eliminated in leg 4 of season 13 of The Amazing Race?
Marissa & Brooke were eliminated in leg 4 of season 13.
Can you wire a four way switch with two pairs of two wire?
Yes. You have 2 wires (plus ground) coming from the previous switch in the circuit and 2 wires (plus ground) going to the next switch in the circuit. If you have a neutral, or if you have a switch leg, which would be the conductor from the last switch in the circuit to the equipment being powered, you will need 3 or 4 conductors (plus ground).
