A circuit contains a 10 pF capacitor and a 50 pF capacitor connected in parallel.What is the total capacitance of this circuit?

When capacitors are connected in parallel, the total capacitance in the circuit in which they are connected is the sum of both capacitances. Capacitors in parallel add like resistors in series, while capacitors in series add like resistors in parallel.


In a circuit the voltage across all resistores is the same?

It depends upon the connection of the resistors, if the resistors are connected in parallel then the voltage is same where as in case of resistors connected in series the voltage is different across different resistors.


What is the PD across two resistors connected parallel to a battery of emf 6V?

The potential difference across two resistors connected in parallel to a battery with a potential difference of 6 volts is 6 volts. Kirchoff's Voltage Law: The signed sum of the voltage drops in a series circuit is zero. This means that that the two series circuits involving the battery and each resistor have the same voltage across each other, and the series circuit involving the two resistors have the same voltage across each other.


What is a resistance network?

A resistance 'network' consists of a number of resistors connected together in series, or in parallel, or in series-parallel, or as a complex circuit. A 'complex' circuit is one that is not series, parallel, or series-parallel.

What is a parilel circuit?

A parallel circuit is one where the elements in question are connected "side-by-side". The term is generally use to contrast against a series circuit where the elements are connected "end-to-end". As an example take two resistors and arbitrarily label the leads "A" and "B". If you connect the two resistors to each other such that A on one is connected to A on the other and B on the one is connected to B on the other, you have created a parallel connection of the two resistors.


A 24 volt battery supplies three devices wired in parallel that each have a resistance of 9 ohms. What is the voltage drop across each device?

A simple circuit has three resistors connected in series. The resistors are 14 ohms 12 ohms and 9 ohms. What is the total resistance of the circuit?


Each branch in a parallel circuit may hold several resistors yes or no?

No. What you are describing is a series-parallel circuit, not a parallel circuit.


Can each branch in a parallel circuit may hold several resistors?

Yes, but then it would be a 'series-parallel' circuit, not a 'parallel' circuit!

What is the equivalent resistance when resistors are in a cube?

The equivalent resistance, from corner to corner, of 12 resistors connected in a cube is 5/6 that of a single resistor.Proof:Start from one corner and flow current through to the opposite corner. You have three resistors. Each of those three resistors is connected to two resistors, in a crisscross pattern. Those six resistors are then connected to three resistors which are connected to the other corner. By symmetry, the voltages at the upper junctions are the same, and then same can be said for the lower junction. You can then simplify the circuit by shorting out the upper junctions and (separately) the lower junctions. This means the circuit is equivalent to three resistors in parallel, in series with six resistors in parallel, in series with three resistors in parallel. This is 1/3 R plus 1/6 R plus 1/3 R, or 5/6 R.


What happens to resistance when resistors are wired in parallel delta circuit?

What do you mean by a 'parallel delta' circuit -is there such a connection.
