What else can I help you with?
When one load is removed from a parallel circuit the total resistance decreases?
No, the total resistance increases.
Is resistance box connected in series or parallel?
It depends on what you want to accomplish. If you want to decrease the resistance in a circuit, you would place the box in parallel to some other resistor. If you want to increase the resistance in a circuit, you would place the box in series.
If a parallel circuit shorts at the battery will the entire circuit short out too?
If at battery,parallel circuit shorts then equivalent resistance of circuit becomes approximately 0 Ohms,and therefore as current follows low resistance path infinite amount of current due to low resistance will flow through the wire so,entire parallel circuit will short out,but wire will burn and battery may get damaged.

Which of the statements concerning parallel circuits is NOT true?
D. The total resistance is equal to the lowest resistance in the circuit
How does voltage and resistance behave in a series and a parallel circuit?
The current through each resistor is equal to the voltage across it divided by its resistance for series and parallel circuits.
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.
What is a resistance circuit?
It does not contain unidirectional outputAnswerA purely resistive circuit is an 'ideal' circuit that contains resistance, but not inductance or capacitance.
What is the equivalent resistance of the parallel circuit you have connected?
In principle, it is infinite. I have not connected a parallel circuit in ages.
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.
If additional resistance is connected in parallel with a circuit the supply voltage will decrease?
If additional resistance is connected in parallel with a circuit the supply voltage will decrease?
What is a resistance network?
A resistance 'network' consists of a number of resistors connected together in series, or in parallel, or in series-parallel, or as a complex circuit. A 'complex' circuit is one that is not series, parallel, or series-parallel.
How do resistance behave in parallel circuit?
in a parallel circuit resistance decreases increasing the current.
What happens to resistance when resistors are wired in parallel delta circuit?
What do you mean by a 'parallel delta' circuit -is there such a connection.
Does the current split in parallel circuits affect the overall resistance in the circuit?
Yes, the current split in parallel circuits does affect the overall resistance in the circuit. In a parallel circuit, the total resistance decreases as more branches are added because the current has multiple paths to flow through, reducing the overall resistance.
How to find Equivalent resistance when you have both parallel and series resistors?
To find equivalent resistance when you have both parallel and series resistors, start simple and expand... Find the smallest part of the circuit, such as a pair of resistors in series or a pair of resistors in parallel, and compute the equivalent single resistor value. Repeat that process, effectively covering more and more of the circuit, until you arrive at a single resistance that is equivalent to the circuit. For resistors in series: RTOTAL = R1 + R2 For resistors in parallel: RTOTAL = R1R2/(R1+R2)
What is advantage of a parallel circuit?
Parallel circuits have a higher current and a lower resistance.
How is the total current in a parallel circuit worked out?
You add up the currents in each branch. The current in each branch is just (voltage acrossd the parallel circuit)/(resistance of that branch) . ==================================== If you'd rather do it the more elegant way, then . . . -- Write down the reciprocal of the resistance of each branch. -- Add up the reciprocals. -- Take the reciprocal of the sum. The number you have now is the 'effective' resistance of the parallel circuit ... the single resistance that it looks like electrically. -- The total current through the parallel circuit is (voltage acrossd the parallel circuit)/(effective resistace of the parallel circuit) .
