Why you take the conjugate of current in complex power?

In order to calculate the complex power of a circuit, the conjugate of current is used. The Vrms of the circuit is multiplied by the complex conjugate of the total circuit current.

Current is additive in a series circuit?

False


Voltage drops is additive in a series circuit?

Yes.


What is a complex circuits?

A 'complex circuit' is a category of electric circuit that encompasses any circuit that is not just a series circuit, a parallel circuit, or a series-parallel circuit. An example of a complex circuit is a bridge circuit.As you can see, such circuits are not necessarily complicated themselves; its just that they cannot be analyzed using only ohm's law and the power formula, but instead require more complicated methods like Theveninization, Kirchhoff's laws, etc. to be analyzed correctly.


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 Additive identity?

The additive identity for rational, real or complex numbers is 0.


What is the role of zero in maths?

It is the additive identity for the real (and complex) numbers.


What is another name for a series circuit?

Complex circuit


How do you identify a complex circuit?

The term, 'complex circuit', is misleading, as they are not necessarily (but often are) complicated. A 'complex circuit' is simply a category used to describe any circuit that isn't a 'series', 'parallel', or 'series-parallel' circuit. This usually means that special theorems (e.g. Kirchhoff's, Norton's, Thevenin's, etc.) must be used to solve complex circuits.


What is the electric circuit where current flows through all parts of the circuit?

complex circuit


Types of electrical circuit?

Series and parallelImproved AnswerThere are four categories of circuit: series, parallel, series-parallel, and complex. 'Complex' is a 'catch-all', used to describe circuits that are not series, parallel, or series-parallel. An example of a 'complex' circuit is a Wheatstone Bridge circuit.
