2 resistors unequal value are in parallel. Would the power dissipated by the resistor with larger ohmic value be greater than the power dissipated by the resistor of lesser value?
No, because the power dissipated in a resistor is proportional to the square of the current through the resistor but only directly proportional to the resistance of the resistor (I^2 * R) and the current through the lower value resistor will be higher than the current through the higher value resistor, the lower value resistor will usually dissipate more power.
When the current traveling through a resistor is increased what happens to the voltage that travels through the same resistor?
Your question reveals fundamental misunderstandings about the nature of electricity.'Voltage' is simply another word for 'potential difference', and a potential difference appears across opposite ends of the resistor; it doesn't 'travel through' that resistor! Current, on the other hand, DOES 'travel through' the resistor and is caused by the potential difference across the resistor.Resistance is the ratio of potential difference to current. So if the resistance remians unchanged when the current through it doubles, then it has happened because the potential difference has doubled.
The total current that flows through a circuit is the same as the current that flows through each individual resistor connected in series?
True
What happen when ac current passes through resistor?
it resists the flow of cuurent
What causes the resistor module to get hot?
Resistors do that when there's a current running through them.
Does voltage flow across or through a resistor?
No. If a voltage is applied across a resistor, a current flows through it.
What is the current through the 150 ohm resistor?
It depends on the voltage applied across it. But the maximum current is limited by the power-rating of the resistor (power divided by the square of the voltage).
How much current will flow through a 12 ohm resistor if 6 volts are applied across it?
Voltage / Resistance = Current, you do the math
How current passes through resistor.?
What is the current running through resistor four?1 amps..!What is the current running through resistor one? 3 amps...!What is the current running through resistor three? 2amps..!What is the current running through resistor five? 3 amps..!What is the voltage drop running through resistor five? 45 volts...!What is the equivalent resistance through the parallel portion of the circuit? 6 ohmsAnswerA resistor is a conductor, albeit one with a higher resistance than a length of wire, so current passes through it without any problem. The magnitude of the current will, of course, be somewhat lower because of the additional resistance.
Is current is drop when it flowing through the resistor?
Current flows in loops, voltage drops across elements. With relation to current, what flows in, must flow out, so no, current is not dropped across a resistor, it flows through a resistor and voltage is dropped across the resistor.
Why does a resistor heat up when an electric current flows through it?
Current moving through a resistor causes it to heat up because of the flowing electrons bumping into the atoms in the resistor.
What is a ballast resistor?
A ballast resistor is an electrical resistor whose resistance varies with the current passing through it, thus maintaining a constant current.
What is the current drop across the resistor?
The correct question is what is the voltage drop across a resistor or the current flowing through the resistor using Ohm's Law where Voltage = Current x Resistance
What is the rule for voltage across each resistor?
Volt across a resistor = resistance x current through the resistor.
What is the current running through resistor one?
Three
Why is series resistor in all bias experiment?
biasing resistor is important because the voltage passing through it will limit the current and derive the next device, i.e. transistor etc. when a signal is applied to this circuit, biasing resistor helps to signify that signal and as a result we can examine our output.
How do you find amperes when using a resistor?
if you want to find the current (in amperes) through the resistor then connect a ammeter in series with the resistor.
