In a series circuit current does stay the same thoughout the circuit, voltage drops in the series circuit.
In a parallel circuit, current is divided between each of the 'branches', according to their resistance.
Current is smallest when the resistance in the circuit is highest, according to Ohm's Law (I = V/R). This means that when the resistance in a circuit is increased, the current flowing through the circuit decreases.
Changing the voltage in a circuit will alter the current flowing through it. According to Ohm's Law, the current is directly proportional to the voltage in the circuit. Increasing the voltage will lead to an increase in current, and vice versa.
A: Current remains the same on a series circuit. A: Current will divide on a parallel circuit for each branch according to the existing resistance
According to ohm's law, voltage in a circuit is directly proportional to current in the circuit and when that proportionality sign is taken off to equals to, a constant is introduced with current and is called resistance. Therefore Voltage in a circuit equals to product of current and resistance in that circuit.
According to Ohm's Law, the two variables that affect the amount of current in a circuit are voltage (V) and resistance (R). The current (I) flowing through a circuit is directly proportional to the voltage applied across it and inversely proportional to the resistance in the circuit.
current in a circuit will flow in a unidirectional manner and when it passes through a resistor in the circuit it opposes its direction
It resist the flow of current according to the resistance value.
Electrical energy = I * V * t Everything else staying the same, the current doubles.
in a parallel circuit, current get divided among the parallel branches in a manner so that the product of current and the resistance of each branch becomes same. The sum of the current in each branch is equal to the total current of the circuit.
The current in a circuit is reduced to prevent the circuit from over load.
In an electrical circuit, voltage is the force that pushes electric current through a conductor. Current is the flow of electric charge, and resistance is the opposition to the flow of current. According to Ohm's Law, the relationship between voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) is given by the equation V I R. This means that the voltage across a circuit is equal to the current flowing through it multiplied by the resistance of the circuit.
