What determines the current in each branch of a parallel circuit?
The resistance of the component on that branch of the circuit, if the resistance is higher less of a proportion of the total current of the circuit will travel through that branch, however, if the resistance is low a higher proportion of the current will travel through that branch of the circuit. The voltage through each branch stays the same.
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.
What is the difference between resistor and resistance?
Resistance is the property of a conductor, which determines the quantity of current that passes through it when a potential difference is applied across it. A resistor is a electrical componet with a predetermined electrical resistance, like 1 ohm, 10 ohms 100 ohms 10000 ohms etc.. depending on how much current you want to pass through a circuit, you would design the circuit with the required resistors
How a switch controls the flow of electric current?
The switch is designed to make or break the circuit. This gives the operator control over whether the power flows or not.
Why does a circuit stop working when you remove the battery?
The battery is the power source of the circuit. It supplies current to the circuit and the circuit is simply a path for the current to follow. When you remove the current (battery), the path still exists but there is no current going through it.
What controls current?
The load resistance in the circuit controls the current flow.
What factor determines the amount of current to flow through a circuit?
current
How a fuse controls the flow of electric current in a circuit?
A fuse does not control the flow in a circuit, it limits the current in a circuit. If the load in a circuit shorts out the fuse link melts and opens the circuit and stops the current flow and prevents the wires feeding the circuit from melting and catching fire. resist
What does the variable resistor do in a circuit?
It is used to vary the voltage/current flow in a circuit.
What determines if a circuit is open or closed?
Closed. If it is open then the power is off.
Which property makes it difficult for current to pass through?
Resistance in the circuit makes it difficult for current to pass through.
What determines the current in each branch of parallel of circuit?
The resistance of the component on that branch of the circuit, if the resistance is higher less of a proportion of the total current of the circuit will travel through that branch, however, if the resistance is low a higher proportion of the current will travel through that branch of the circuit. The voltage through each branch stays the same.

What determines the current ine each branch of parallel of circuit?
The resistance of the component on that branch of the circuit, if the resistance is higher less of a proportion of the total current of the circuit will travel through that branch, however, if the resistance is low a higher proportion of the current will travel through that branch of the circuit. The voltage through each branch stays the same.
What determines the amount of electric current flow through a circuit?
voltage and resistance v=ir v=voltage i=current r=resistance in physics right now
What does this sentence mean fuses are the police officers of electric current?
Fuses protect an electrical circuit. When current in an electrical circuit becomes dangerously high the fuse will open protecting people and property. Police men/women protect people and property from the dregs of society.
