What else can I help you with?
A type of circuit in which current can branch off?
In a parallel circuit, current is divided between each of the 'branches', according to their resistance.
When is current the smallest?
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.
How does changing the voltage in a circuit affect the current in the circuit?
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.
Is the current same in each row of bread board?
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
How do voltage and current and restistance all link together?
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 what are the two variables that affect the amount of current in a 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.
How does current flow around a 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
What does a fixed resistor do in a circuit?
It resist the flow of current according to the resistance value.
If you double the energy in a circuit what happens to the current?
Electrical energy = I * V * t Everything else staying the same, the current doubles.
What happens to current in a parallel circuit?
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.
Why reducing current in circuit?
The current in a circuit is reduced to prevent the circuit from over load.
What is the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance in an electrical circuit?
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.
