What will happen if part of the circuit is not properly connected?
Current stops flowing.
What happens when more than one resistor is connected to a circuit?
the current flowing in will be low
If two light-bulbs are connected in a series circuit and one of the light-bulb's current flowing is 0.5 A what is the current flowing in the other light-bulb?
Current in a series circuit is the same throughout the circuit. Voltages are additive. Voltage in a parallel circuit is the same throughout the circuit. Currents are additive.
What is it that shows whether or not a current flows?
An amp meter connected in series with the load will show whether or not a current is flowing in a circuit.
A W bulb and a W bulb are connected in series in a circuit Which bulb has the greater current flowing in it?
A series circuit is where there is only one path for the current. As a result, and as a direct consequence of Kirchoff's current law, the current at every point in a series circuit is the same. The two bulbs have the same current flowing through them.
What is a circuit called if its operating and the current is flowing?
This is called a closed circuit. If current was not flowing, it would be open.
How is an ammeter connected in a circuit in order to read the current flowing in the circuit?
In series with the circuit and never in parallel. The reason being that it will cause the circuit total resistance to drop which will make the circuit draw excessive current. That's a short circuit actually.
What is a circuit which will allow flowing current?
As long as an electrical power source is connected to itself with electrical conductors of some kind, then a current will flow through it. How much current will depend on the components used in the circuit.
What kind of force keeps current flowing in a circuit?
EMF (voltage) is the force that keeps current flowing in a circuit.
Why is it that the current flowing through a parallel circuit is the different in all parts of the circuit?
Because there is many path for flowing current through circuit.
When is the current flowing in a circuit said to be very small?
When the current flowing in a circuit is very small the resistance will be very high.
What is he definition of electrical current?
The current flowing in an electrical circuit.
