Is a ammeter connected in series or in parallel with the circuit under test?
An ammeter is connected in series. A voltmeter is connected in parallel. ammeter should always be connected in series instead of parallel becoz it is a low resistance device and we know that resistance is inversly proportional to current so more current will pass through it and if it is connected in parallel than it may get damaged
What is a device connected to a network such as a computer or a game console?
A node is a device connected to a network such as a computer or a game console. (Each device connected to a network is referred to as a node. A node can be a computer, printer, game console, or router.)
How are input devices connected to the computer?
A device which connects to the computer is called a "peripheral."
Peripherals are what on a computer?
A peripheral is a device that is connected to a computer. The most common peripheral device is a printer.
How you can diffrentiate between parallel connection and series connection?
Consider the electric current to be like the flow of water. In a series circuit, the downstream wire of the first device is connected to the upstream wire of the second device. So the current has to flow through device one, then device two. In this case, total resistance is increased because it is harder for the current to flow through two devices. In a parallel circuit, the upstream wires of the two devices are connected to each other, and the downstream wires of the two devices are connected. So, part of the current will flow through device one, and the rest of the current will flow through device two. In this case, total resistance is decreased because the current can flow more easily through the resistors (this takes a little math to really prove, but the conclusion still holds). Some circuits can have some devices wired in series, and others in parallel, but these circuits should not be confused with simple series and parallel circuits.
What is a hardware device such as a printer or scanner that is connected to a computer and controlled by the computer's microprocessor?
Anything connected to the computer is called a peripheral
What is the transmission between a computer and it's peripheral devices?
The way a computer communicates with a peripheral device is through a device driver. A device driver is a low level computer program that allows higher level programs to communicate with a hardware device connected to the computer bus. Device drivers are hardware dependent and specific to an operating system.
How is a series circuit different from parallel circuit?
A parallel circuit is different in many ways from a series circuit: 1. In parallel, the voltage across all the devices connected is the same. 2. If a fault occurs in any device connected in parallel combo, then it has no effect on the operation of the other device. 3. In series circuit the current flowing through all the devices is the same while in case of the parallel one the voltage across all the devices is same.
Device connected by cable to CPU of computer?
peripheral
What does a computer require in order to run a connected peripheral device properly?
a device driver
Why keyboard is peripheral device?
A keyboard is a peripheral device as it is connected to the computer system. It is used for type work up to the computer.
Predict whether a fuse will work successfully if it is connected in parallel with the device it is supposed to protect?
A fuse will not work successfully if it is connected in parallel with the device it is supposed to protect.First, it will blow because it has no resistance in series with it. Second, once it blows, the device still has power applied to it. Fuses must be wired in series.
