How does connecting devices in parallel affect the electric current in a circuit?

it doesn't, the one with the highest resistance does


What are examples of a load in a circuit?

Any specific device that draws a current which is connected within the circuit is an example of a circuit load. That may be a resistance and a loudspeaker LED computer and induction motor or whatever which can withdraw the energy from the output.


What is parasitic resistance?

Parasitic resistance is resistance that you encounter in a circuit board or integrated circuit but not included in the original design -- an undesirable, unintended consequence of putting a concept into manufacturing. Since parasitic resistance does exist, you need to estimate its value and make sure the design still functions as intended. An example of parasitic resistance is the resistance of the traces in a circuit board or metal interconnects in an IC, the purpose of which is to connect components electrically according to the circuit diagram, but these connecting structures are not ideal. These connecting structures most likely also add parasitic capacitance and inductance to your design and, if substantial, should be included in your design (back-annotation) accordingly.


What is matual induction?

Mutual (not 'matual') induction occurs when a changing current in one circuit induces a voltage into a second circuit. An example of mutual induction is a transformer.


What would happen to circuit if there was no resistance?

a circuit with no resistance or zero resistance can be considered as open circuit in which the current is zero. without resistance the circuit just becomes open ()


Why dont series circuits shine as bright as parallel circuits?

By connecting components in series, you are increasing the equivalent resistance (known as thevenin resistance) of the circuit. Power is equivalent to Voltage^2 / Resistance. Therefore, by increase the resistance, you are decreasing the amount of power provided by the source.


What is the function of bulb in an electric circuit?

The function of a light bulb in an electric circuit is that it turns electrical energy into light.


What will happen if ammeter is put across a resistance in a circuit?

Maybe blow the fuse or burn out the wiring. An ammeter has an extremely low resistance. connecting it across the resistance causes the resulting parallel resistance to be slightly lower than the resistance of the ammeter 1/Rt = 1/R + 1/R(ammeter)


Is the increase in voltage causes a greater electric resistance in a circuit?

No, the resistance in a circuit does not change when voltage changes. Resistance is an inherent property of the circuit.


How is direction of rotation for single phase induction motor determined?

A single phase induction motor is not self starting; thus, it is necessary to provide a starting circuit and associated start windings to give the initial rotation in a single phase induction motor. The normal running windings within such a motor can cause the rotor to turn in either direction, so the starting circuit determines the operating direction.


How is the total resistance in a series circuit is determined?

The total resistance in a series circuit is determined by adding (summing) the individual resistances of each component in the circuit.


Why external resistances are added to armature circuit in a dc motor?

extra resistance is added in order to decrease starting current and improve starting torque
