What is the Difference between like and unlike parallel forces?
Forces which are parallel and acting in same direction are called like parallel forces. Forces which are parallel and acting in opposite direction are called unlike parallel forces.
What will happen if you place a magnetic compass in an electric curcuit?
The compass will align itself with the magnetic field generated by the current flow through the wires.
What is a curcuit called that has components in series plus components in parallel?
series-parallel curcuit
How is a parallel curcuit different from a series curcuit?
a parallel circuit is in lines and a series circuit is one circle
Is there a similarity in a series circuit and a parallel circuit?
yes. a parallel circuit is made up of many series curcuits. so therefore, without the series curcuit you could not have a parallel curcuit.
What is the function of a battery in a parallel curcuit?
a battery in an electric circuit is used to generate the power supply.
What is an example of a parallel curcuit?
When you have a light bulb in front of each other (all connected to wires to a battery)
What type of curcuit measurement is made by placing a meters test leads in parallel with a deenergized component?
Continuity, resistance?
Who invented the parallel curcuit?
Thomas Edison invented the Parallel circuit while working on the electric light bulb around 1879.
What type of circuit allows some lights to burn and some to be off at the same time?
Parallel circuits.
What is a curcuit in which there are no gaps?
If there are no gaps in a curcuit, it is a closed curcuit.
Is a flashlight an example of a parallel or series curcuit type?
A flashlight is an example of a series circuit; a battery in series with a switch in series with a bulb.
What is a curcuit for a car?
Car curcuit
What is a parrallel curcuit?
