What can be produced by electrical current in a simple circuit?
There are three effects produced by an electric current:heating effectmagnetic effectchemical effect
Why use an enclosed circuit breaker?
To protect the wiring from overheating and catching on fire.AnswerThe term, 'switchgear', describes a variety of switching devices including circuit breakers and isolators (disconnects).A circuit breaker is an overcurrent protection device. Overcurrents are overload currents (due to too much load for a given circuit) or short-circuit currents (due to electrical faults).
What is meant by an electrical circuit?
An electrical circuit is an electrically conductive path, through which electricity can continuously flow, driven by the voltage of some generator or battery. A circuit is not literally circular in the geometrical sense, and it can have a very complicated shape, but it is circular in effect, because the electric current leaves the generator or battery and then returns to it, and then leaves again, and so forth.
Does potential difference change with change in resistance?
Changing the potential difference in a circuit does not change the resistance. Rather, it changes the current.
If One wire in a circuit is replaced by a wire that conducts less electricity which unit describes the difference in conduction between the wires?
ohms
Do you expect angle in rlc series circuit to be a constant?
The phase shift angle of an RLC circuit is constant for a constant frequency, but changes with different frequencies.The phase angle of the AC in the RLC circuit is however continuously changing. Otherwise it wouldn't be AC.
What what is an oscillator?
a circuit that produces a continuously oscillating signal.
Why bulb glows continuously?
The bulb glows continuously probably, because the circuit it is installed in, is in the closed position.
What does a close circuit looks like?
A closed circuit would look like a circuit which has no disconnected wire and when the current is flowing continuously
What is the difference between a circuit braker and a relay?
A circuit breaker when energized will latch and stay in that position until the load is reduced and manually reset. a relay will change state continuously if the source continuously changes
What describes continuity in a circuit?
Continuity in a circuit means no breaks; continuous.
What does a closing look like?
A closed circuit would look like a circuit which has no disconnected wire and when the current is flowing continuously
What describes a series circuit?
a generator
How current flow through capacitor?
There are two types of electric current, termed 'conduction current' and 'displacement current', respectively.A 'conduction current' describes the drift of free electrons in a metal conductor. A 'displacement current' describes the polarisation of atoms in dielectrics.When an electric field is applied to a dielectric, the elliptical orbits of the electrons around each atom's nucleus become distorted, and stretch, resulting in polarised atoms. The amount of 'stretch' (polarisation) increases with the strength of the electric field. So, as the voltage across the changes so, too, does the amount of polarisation -i.e. so, too, does the displacement current.So when a capacitor is connected to an external d.c. supply, a varying conduction current drifts around the circuit conductor, while a displacement current occurs within the capacitor's dielectric. When a capacitor is connected to an external a.c. supply, a continuously varying potential difference results in a continuously changing conduction current in the metallic circuit, and a continuously changing displacement current within the capacitor's dielectric.
What describes a parallel circuit?
A circuit in which there are multiple ways for electricity to go around.
What best describes continuity in a circuit?
Continuity in a circuit means no breaks; continuous.
What is the function of electric circuit?
A circuit is an unbroken loop of conductive material that allows electrons to flow through continuously without beginning or end.
