Importance of knowledge of genetic disorder in family?
This can come in handy for your doctor or medical practitioner when it comes to diagnosing ailments. If you have a history of a particular disorder, the doctor can look to that as a possibility because if it runs in your family you have a higher percentage chance of inheriting it as well. Also, you can prepare yourself for the particular disorder by taking precautionary steps to minimize the damage if you know/think you might develop the disorder eventually. An example is heart disease or diabetes - if you know that it runs in your family then you can take steps at a younger age to eat right, exercise and minimize/eliminate the associated risk factors for developing the disease.
What affects the value of peak current?
From ohms law, I = V/R hence Voltage and Resistance can affect the value of current, both peak and average. Also with a rectifier circuit other factors can affect the peak current such as frequency and capacitance Craig - AUT
The electrical resistance of circuit is influenced by three primary factors?
Resistance is directly proportional to the resistivityand length of a material, and inversely-proportional to its cross-sectional area. It should also be noted that its resistivity is affected by temperature, so temperature indirectly affects resistance.
