What is a purely resistive circuit?
It does not contain unidirectional outputAnswerA purely resistive circuit is an 'ideal' circuit that contains resistance, but not inductance or capacitance.
Why a wheatstone circuit is called a bridge?
An electrical circuit used to measure an unknown electrical resistance is called a Wheatstone bridge. It is called a bridge because it balances two legs of a bridge circuit.
How is the total resistance in a series circuit is determined?
The total resistance in a series circuit is determined by adding (summing) the individual resistances of each component in the circuit.
Why isn't resistance constant?
If measuring resistance of materials or resistors by themselves(not soldered into a circuit board) resistance is constant. If measuring resistance of a circuit then it could fluctuate with the components functioning in the circuit.
What is the difference between on and off state resistance?
On Circuit Resistance = Close to the total load Resistance. Off Circuit Resistance = Near Infinitive High Resistance.
What is the opposition to flow of current in a circuit called?
resistance
What is a purely resistive circuit?

What is Power that is applied to an entire circuit consisting of resistance capacitance and inductance is called?
The unit of power measured is watt, irrespective of resistance, capacitance or inductance of the circuit.
What would happen to circuit if there was no resistance?
a circuit with no resistance or zero resistance can be considered as open circuit in which the current is zero. without resistance the circuit just becomes open ()
Why a wheatstone circuit is called a bridge?

What is it called if electrons encounter difficulty as they move through a circuit?
Resistance, or electrical resistance. The SI unit is the ohm.
Is The ability to regulate the amount of charge flowing in a circuit called resistance?
yes
Is the increase in voltage causes a greater electric resistance in a circuit?
No, the resistance in a circuit does not change when voltage changes. Resistance is an inherent property of the circuit.
What is the ability to regulate the amount of charge flowing in a circuit is called?
Resistance is the ability to regulate the amount of charge flowing in a circuit.
What is swamping resistance?
(Electronics) Resistor placed in the emitter lead of a transistor circuit to minimize the effects of temperature on the emitter-base junction resistance and its resistance is called swamping resistance.
How is the total resistance in a series circuit is determined?
The total resistance in a series circuit is determined by adding (summing) the individual resistances of each component in the circuit.
Is the sum of the resistance in a parallel circuit always excessds the total resistance in a circuit?
Not sure what you mean. The equivalent (total) resistance in a parallel circuit is less than any individual resistance.
