What circuit is a circuit in which electrical current has more than one path to follow?
A circuit that has more than one path for the current to flow is a parallel circuit. The circuit must have two or more paths to be considered parallel. A circuit that has only one current path through multiple components is a series circuit.
Is it true that a parallel circuit has more than one pathway unlike a series circuit?
yes
How to calculate a parallel circuit with more than one load in its branches?
If a 'parallel' circuit has more than one load in its (not "it's"!) branches, then it is not a parallel circuit, but a series-parallel circuit! To resolve the circuit, you must first resolve the total resistance of the loads within each branch.
Is parallel circuit more advisable than series Circuit?
no series circuit is best. Actually it depends on the application, neither is always better.
Why is a parallel circuit better than series?
Neither is superior. Both a series and a parallel circuit have their place.
A circuit that has only one path for the current is called?
Series, because everything in the circuit is in series.
Why does electrical current flow along a single path in a series circuit and more than one path in a parallel circuit?
Because there is only a single path in series circuit and many paths in parallel circuit.
How many electrical paths are in a parallel circut?
By definition, more than one. If a circuit has just one path, it is a series circuit, not parallel.
Is series parallel the same as parallel?
No, series parallel, as it implies has components of the circuit configured in both series and parallel. This is typically done to achieve a desired resistance in the circuit. A parallel circuit is a circuit that only has the components hooked in parallel, which would result in a lower total resistance in the circuit than if the components were hooked up in a series parallel configuration.
Which type of circuit the parallel circuit are use?
they are used for more power than a series circuit so you should use this one.
Why parallel combination is preferred over series combination?
In a parallel circuit (with more than one branch), the current will still flow in the other circuit(s) even if there is a break in one circuit. This is not so with a series circuit, since it does not have branches: if there is a break in the circuit, there is a break in the circuit.
What are the paths of a parallel circuit?
There are more than one path for a parallel circuit
