Ohm's Law says
Voltage = Current x Resistance
With constant voltage, an increase in resistance decreases the current. Now the load can be added in two basic ways. If the load is added in series the resistance will increase. If you add load in parallel the resistance will decrease and the current will increase from the source.
A: It depends on the voltage source impedance. If it is infinite nothing will happens. if the source has a finite impedance then that impedance will be in series with the loads and reduce the voltage accordingly
The additional resistance would create another parallel branch, and the resulting branch current would cause an increase in the value of the circuit's supply current. The additional resistance would also act to reduce the effective resistance of the parallel circuit.
More current will be drawn from the source.
The current increases in direct proportion to the loads added. In a parallel circuit you just add together the currents drawn by each device to get the total.
voltage will remains same......... and current drawn from battery will increase........
it might increase the load on circuit as it may attract most of the current
When more loads are added the current drawn from each cell increases and also the cells will discharge fastly compared to the earlier case.
The current increases.
The increase in current is equal to
(voltage across the parallel circuit) divided by (resistance of the added load).
Electrical wiring for buildings is always done in parallel circuits.
The equivalent resistance is the overall effect all of the resistances in a circuit has. Put another way, it is the value a single resistor in a circuit would have to be in order to have the same effect as all of the resistors resistors combined in a given circuit.
Well it can depend on how many bulbs it has etc, but generally it would be a series circuit.
It would depend on the circuit diagram. In some cases, the circuit would be incomplete (simplest case is a battery with a wire attached to just one terminal).Parallel branches that have a connection to the battery without going through other branches are independent of each other. Say you have two parallel branches and a battery. If you short circuit one of the branches, the other branch will not be affected but the battery will be (current through the battery would decrease because taking out a parallel branch increases resistance).In short, it would depend on the circuit diagram. Note that for a nanosecond, there would be current in an open circuit, but after this brief time there would be no current flow in the segment of the circuit that has been shorted.
in a parallel circuit, current get divided among the parallel branches in a manner so that the product of current and the resistance of each branch becomes same. The sum of the current in each branch is equal to the total current of the circuit.
No. In a parallel circuit, the resistance gets cut in half, so logically the bulbs would do the opposite and get brighter.
A parallel circuit
Yes, but then it would be a 'series-parallel' circuit, not a 'parallel' circuit!
If a fourth bulb were added in a similar way to the three existing bulbs, the resistance in the circuit would go up if the bulbs were series connected, and it would go down if the bulbs were parallel connected.
There will be no change, because it is a parallel circuit.
A lighting circuit would be a parallel circuit.

A parallel circuit
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.
A series/parallel circuit.
The parallel-tuned filter in antenna circuit rejects only the undesired frequencies.
