What else can I help you with?
How do you connect resistor?
In a circuit, either in Parallel or in Series with other components.
What is resistance on something that is shorted?
It depends on weather it is in a parallel or series circuit. In parallel the entire circuit it is in parallel with is shorted out. In series the total resistance decreases by the amount of the resistor that shorted out. Resistors usually open or change value with use.
What are the two kinds of electrical circuit?
There are four types of circuit: series, parallel, series-parallel, and complex.
If two bulbs in a series are connect to a battery and the current in the first bulb is found to be 1 ampere then what is the current through the battery?
A circuit with a 2 ohm resistor and a 4 ohm resistor in series with a 12 volt battery will have 2 amps flowing through each resistor. The current is the same in each resistor because they are in series, and a series circuit has constant current throughout.
How is a series circuit and a parallel circuit like their circuit names?
A series circuit is actually in series, but a parallel circuit, is Parallel
Does a battery last longer in a series or parallel circuit?
A battery doesn't see a series or parallel circuit. It just supplies the current that is demanded by the load be it a series or parallel load. Visualize that a single load across a battery is both a series and parallel load to the battery.
How do you connect resistor?
In a circuit, either in Parallel or in Series with other components.
A 9.0 volt battery is connected to a 4.0-ohm and 5.0-ohm resistor What is the current in the circuit?
If a 9.0 volt battery is connected to a 4.0-ohm and 5.0-ohm resistor connected in series, the current in the circuit is 1.0 amperes. If a 9.0 volt battery is connected to a 4.0-ohm and 5.0-ohm resistor connected in parallel, the current in the circuit is 0.5 amperes.
What is the circuit when jump starting a car battery. Series or parallel?
Parallel
Is total resistance less than smallest resistor in a series parallel circuit?
no
What are some series parallel circuits practice problems that I can solve to improve my understanding of electrical circuits?
Here are some series-parallel circuits practice problems you can solve to improve your understanding of electrical circuits: Calculate the total resistance in a circuit with two resistors in series and one resistor in parallel. Determine the current flowing through each resistor in a circuit with three resistors in parallel. Find the voltage drop across each resistor in a circuit with two resistors in series and one resistor in parallel. Calculate the total power dissipated in a circuit with resistors connected in both series and parallel configurations. Determine the equivalent resistance of a complex circuit with multiple resistors connected in series and parallel. Solving these practice problems will help you develop a better understanding of series-parallel circuits and improve your skills in analyzing and solving electrical circuit problems.
What is the advantage of a parallel circuit over a series circuit.?
In a parallel circuit, all the external resistors are supplied the same potential difference which is not possible in a series circuit. Also in a parallel circuit, every resistor or component can be individually turned on or off without affecting the rest of the circuit.
What is resistance on something that is shorted?
It depends on weather it is in a parallel or series circuit. In parallel the entire circuit it is in parallel with is shorted out. In series the total resistance decreases by the amount of the resistor that shorted out. Resistors usually open or change value with use.
Does a battery operated toy have a parallel circuit?
Yes, a battery operated toy has a parallel circuit - the battery is in parallel with the toy. In fact, this is true for any system where there is a single equivalent source and a single equivalent load. While it is true that this is also a series circuit, by Kirchoff's current and voltage laws a simple series circuit is also a simple parallel circuit.
What are the two kinds of electrical circuit?
There are four types of circuit: series, parallel, series-parallel, and complex.
How can you define power dissipation in a resistor in series or parallel circuit?
Power dissipation in a resistor, or any other type of load, for that matter, is measured in watts and calculated as volts times amperes. It does not matter if the resistor is in a series or a parallel circuit, so long as the volts and amperes in the calculation is for that one resistor. Obviously, volts and amperes is distributed amongst the components of a circuit, and series vs parallel can have a significant affect on that distribution, so you will need to calculate or measure them on a case by case basis.
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.
