What will happen to voltage in a parallel circuit?
In a parallel circuit the voltage across each component is the same.
Will the polarity of the earths magnetic field change in 2012?
There is no reason to believe that the Earth's magnetic field will change any time soon... or, for that matter, that anything extraordinary is going to happen in 2012.
Which uses more energy parallel circuit or a series circuit?
That depends. For example, if the circuit is consisted of two resistors, 2 ohms each, the equivalent resistance (Req) of these two resistors in series is 4 ohms, and the Req of these two resistors in parallel is 1 ohm. If the same voltage is applied, say 4 V.power consumed in a resistance = V2/R.The parallel circuit: Power = 4 * 4 / 1 = 16 [W].The series circuit: Power = 4 * 4 / 4 = 4 [W].With everything else the same, a parallel circuit consumes more energy than a series circuit.Note that circuits of only simple resistors are discussed. You need to consider each circuit on its merit.================================AnswerIt depends. In both cases, the total energy expended will be the sum of the energies expended by each individual load.
What will happen to the circuit if the bulb if removed from its holder?
Nothing will happen to circuit..... as usual the circuit would be supplying 220v(if india) and certain current...but there is no bulb to consume power...
What happen to the secondary circuit if the primary circuit is close?
The secondary need to continue and help the primary one.
What would happen if a lamp was unscrewed from a parallel circuit?
There will be no change, because it is a parallel circuit.
What happen if you change the position of ammeter in the circuit in parallel and series?
-- In a series circuit, no matter where you install the ammeter, it will always read the same current. -- In a parallel circuit, the ammeter may read a different current when it's moved to a different parallel branch.
What will happen to voltage in a parallel circuit?
In a parallel circuit the voltage across each component is the same.
What would happen if two secondary winding were connected in parallel with the wrong polarity?
Quite simply, they supply electricity in addition to each other and each lead will be connected to the opposite polarity lead of the other winding... you have a short circuit. The transformer will rapidly get hot and if it has no thermal fuse, might start a fire or cause other damage.
What happen when the polarity of transformer reversed?
You cannot 'reverse' the polarity of a transformer -it is either wound with 'additive polarity' or 'subtractive polarity', and there's not much you can do about it! For a single transformer, its polarity doesn't really matter. But if you are going to parallel two transformers, then you must know the polarity of each transformer in order to avoid harmful circulating currents in their secondary windings.
What would happen if one bulb burns out in a parallel circuit?
Nothing much will happen except the same bulb will not blow..
What will happen if two dc sources are connected in parallel?
IF two dc sources are connected in parallel, the one with the highest potential dominates the circuit.
What will happen to a buzzer connected to a circuit?
If it is connected in series with a circuit then it might raise the resistance too high and fail the system. Parallel connection is a circuit is probably the best bet you have.
What will happen to the two lights in a parallel circuit when one of the wires is disconnected?
one light will still be going
What happen when a ammeter is placed in parallel with the circuit?
If an ammeter is placed in parallel with a a load on a circuit, the circuit can short out as the ammeter takes the place of the load, flowing freely through the meter. Never measure across a resister or other electronic load with an ammeter. Remember, ammeters are used in series while voltmeters are used in parallel.
What would happen if electrons went the opposite way?
If electrons went the opposite way they might change their polarity.
What is the advantage of using a parallel circuit as opposed to a series circuit?
If a component of a parallel circuit fails, there are complete pathways for electricity to allow the remaining components to carry on functioning. ( For instance if the living room light bulb fails, the kitchen light can still work.) Also, if you link several bulbs in series, the current through them drops and they are dimmer than one on its own, but this doesn't happen with a parallel circuit.
