What are 3 function examples of resistor?
A resistor is really anything that uses electricity along an electric circuit, for example a light bulb, a computer, a radio, etc.
Which electrical protective device is designed to detect a difference in a current between circuit wires and interrupt the circuit and stop the flow of electricity?
A resistor is a device designed to detect difference in current and stop the flow of electricity. On most every type of electric engine or circuit has a resistor.
Why resistor should disconnected from the circuit when measured the value of resistor?
if not disconnected you will measure the resistance of the circuit in parallel with the resistor.
What does the variable resistor do in a circuit?
It is used to vary the voltage/current flow in a circuit.
What is a Memristor?
a memristor is the fourth passive element in the electric circuit joining the resistor,inductor and capacitor , the word memristor is the concatenation of "memory" and "resistance"
What device creates a potential difference in an electric circuit?
resistor
What is the condition that limits the flow of electrons in an electric circuit is called?
what is all conditions which limit the flow of electrons in an electric circuit? A resistor
What is meany by resistor?
Resistor is a component of an electric circuit that resist the flow of direct or alternating electric current . It can also limit or divide the current, reduce the voltage, protect an electric circuit, or provide large amounts of heat or light.
What is the function of resistor in electric circuit?
the function of a resister is to lower the voltage.
Which device controls the flow of electrons in an electric circuit?
Flow of electricity in a circuit is controlled by using 'resistor'.
What is the type of circuit called when it has an conductor a switch a electric cell a resistor?
it is called a circuit and when it is closed is called a closed circuit and when open circuit it is called an open circuit
Name four common parts of an electric circuit?
Transistor, resistor, diode, output.
What does a resistor do in an ampliflyer circuit?
what does a resistor in an ampliflyer circuit
What materials will made an electric circuit work?
a dry cell a resistor (a bulb maybe) wire switch
What is the amps In a simple electric circuit with a 12 volt supply and a 24 ohm resistor?
0.5 amps
An electric DC circuit is attached to a 12 volt battery and has a 3 ohm resistor in it find the current flowing through the circuit?
If the 3-ohm resistor is the ONLY thing in the circuit, then the current flowing through it is (12 volts)/(3 ohms) = 4 amperes. If there are other things in the circuit besides the resistor, then the current depends on all of them.
What are 3 function examples of resistor?
A resistor is really anything that uses electricity along an electric circuit, for example a light bulb, a computer, a radio, etc.
