Basically the current should be limited to 20ma Actually the heat dissipation of the device cannot be exceeded. Some LED can be run at 100ma or more depends on the device power dissipation envelope.

How is a circuit constructed with five resistors and a battery as shown?

A circuit with five resistors and a battery is constructed by connecting the resistors in series or parallel to create a closed loop for the flow of electric current from the battery through the resistors. The battery provides the energy for the current to flow through the resistors, which resist the flow of current. The arrangement of the resistors and the battery determines the overall resistance and current flow in the circuit.


How will amps and current differ in a series if you get resistors with different resistance?

-- "Amps" and "current" are the same thing. Electric current is measured in units of Amperes. -- The current is always the same at every point in a series circuit, no matter how many resistors of the same or different values are in the circuit.


In a circuit the voltage across all resistores is the same?

It depends upon the connection of the resistors, if the resistors are connected in parallel then the voltage is same where as in case of resistors connected in series the voltage is different across different resistors.


Can you use a battery to make electricity?

make a electric circuit,by using resistors,cll then electricity is produced.


What is true of a series circuit that has two resistors?

Which is true of a series circuit that has two resistors?A.The resistors are on different branches of the circuit.B.Neither resistor has current flowing through it.C.One resistor has no voltage across it.D.Both resistors have current flowing through them.


How do resistors work in an electrical circuit?

Resistors work in an electrical circuit by limiting the flow of electric current. They are designed to resist the flow of electricity, which helps control the amount of current passing through a circuit. This resistance is measured in ohms and can be adjusted by changing the value of the resistor.


The sum of currents across the resistors equals the currents through the source in which type of circuit?

In parallel circuit the current through the resistors are different in values depending upon the values of resistors. But the sum of the currents across all the resistors will be equal to the current through the sourcgsvg bdjasuhafyuhda


Does the current remains the same in a series circuit despite the different values if the resistors in the circuit?

current in series depends on values of resistors. more resistance less current will flow through and viceversa


Do resistors limit current or voltage in an electrical circuit?

Resistors limit the flow of current in an electrical circuit.


Give you the different types of resistors and what effect do they cause on the circuit?

Sure some resistors are wire wound chrome wire and as such will display an inductance characteristics


How do you find the resistance of a series circuit with n identical resistors?

The total resistance of resistors in series is simply the sum of the resistance values of those resistors. If the resistors are identical, then you can multiply the resistance of one of them by the number of resistors in the circuit.


Why resistors are connecting?

resistors are used to resist the flow of current in a circuit.......
