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 ()

What is critical resistance in circuit theory?

With respect to an RLC circuit, the critical resistance is the resistance which would critically dampen the circuit. This means a resistance lower than the critical resistance would create an under-damped situation, and higher than the critical resistance would create an over-damped situation. An underdamped circuit will ocillate, an overdamped circuit will decay exponentially over a long period of time. The critically damped circuit will immediately decay to zero (time dependent on the values of the circuit elements)


Why would never measure resistance in a circuit carrying a current?

If the circuit is carrying current then that means that the load (resistance) is in the circuit. if an ohm meter is connected in the live circuit then there would be some voltage drop at the ohm meter but as the meter has very less resistance, this would damage the instrument.


What is the resistance when switch is open?

Nothing will happen to the resistance of the circuit. However, with the switch open, it will be 'seen' as having infinite resistance from the supply side.


What happen when ammeter connected in parallel?

an ideal ammeter has zero or negligible resistance when this is connected in series no effective resistance would be added in the circuit so that the value of curret that we get is exactly of the circuit only. but when the ammeter is connected in parllel as it has zero resistance , the resistor to which it is connected in parllel gets shorted and due to his the effective resistance of the circuit is changed and so the effective current ... due to this the w=value measured by the ammeter would be different (incresed due to dec. in effective resistance)

What happen to the circuit if there is higher resistance?

In what sense.


What would happen to the current in a simple circuit if a bulb with a higher resistance were used?

If a bulb with higher resistance is used in a simple circuit, the total resistance in the circuit would increase. According to Ohm's Law (V=IR), with an increase in resistance, the current in the circuit would decrease since the voltage supplied remains constant.


What is the resistance in this circuit?

You would have to specify the circuit.


What will happen in a circuit if the voltage does not change but the resistance in the circuit increases?

If the resistance increases, while the voltage stays the same, current will decrease. Current = voltage divided by resistance


Describe how a change in resistance would affect the current in a circuit?

As long as the voltage between the ends of the circuit remains constant, the current through the circuit is inversely proportional to the total effective resistance of the circuit.

What happen to the current in a circuit if the resistance is increased?

If resistance is increased, current decreases. Ohm's Law: current equals voltage divided by resistance.

What would happen if the resistance in a circuit remained the same and the voltage decreased?

A well designed circuit should be able to operate over a range of voltages, not just at one voltage. Especially a circuit which is intended to be powered by a battery. As the battery starts to get used up, and the voltage drops, you want the circuit to operate as planned.
