What is the formula for Kirchoff's current for parallel circuits?
Kirchoffs's current law states that the sum of all the currents flowing out of any point is equal to zero. In other words, the current flowing in is equal to the current flowing out.In the case of a parallel circuit, this means that if a single current branches into two or more parallel branches, then the sum of the currents in the parallel branches must be equal to the original current before it branched.
How many parts can currents take in series and parallel circuits?
Series circuit: one path. Parallel circuit: One path for each branch (two or more).
Is An open in the main line of a parallel circuit causes all individual branch currents to be zero?
Yes, an open in main line of a parallel circuit will effect the entire circuit current and make the whole circuit current zero
Which of kichhoff's laws applies to series circuits?
Kirchoff's Current Law states that the signed sum of the currents entering a node is equal to zero. In a simple parallel circuit, say with one battery and two light bulbs, this means the current coming out of the battery will be exactly equal to the sum of the currents entering the two light bulbs. In a series circuit, it also means that the current at every point in the circuit is the same. A parallel circuit can be construed as a special case of a series circuit, when you start to combine elements. Kirchoff's Voltage Law states that the signed sum of the voltage drops around a series circuit is equal to zero. Since a parallel circuit can be construed as a special case of a series circuit, this means that voltage across parallel nodes is equal.
What is the current of a series-parallel circuit connection?
The current flowing through a series circuit is (voltage between the circuit's ends) / (sum of all resistances in the circuit). The current is the same at every point in the series circuit.
How do parallel circuits use current and voltage?
Kirchoff's voltage law: In a series circuit, the signed sum of the voltage drops around the circuit add up to zero. Since a parallel circuit (just the two components of the parallel circuit) also represents a series circuit, this means that the voltage across two elements in parallel must be the same.Kirchoff's current law: The signed sum of the currents entering a node is zero. In a series circuit, this means that the current at every point in that circuit is equal. In a parallel circuit, the currents entering that portion of the circuit divide, but the sum of those divided currents is equal to the current supplying them.

What is the resultant current in parallel circuit combining of 2 or more currents that are in phase?
The phasor sum (kind of like a vector sum) of the legcurrents in a parallel network will equal the current entering the network. If all currents are in phase, then just add up the magnitudes of the currents.
In a parallel circuit with two branches the voltage is equal across both branches and the current?
In a parallel circuit with two branches, the voltage is the same across each branch and the current is divided between the branches. The total current entering the parallel circuit is equal to the sum of the currents in each branch.
The total current that flows through a circuit is the same as the current that flows through each individual parallel sub-circuit.?
True...!
How are parallel circuit and series circuit the same?
They are not. They are connected differently, and the voltages and currents behave in different ways.
How is a total current in a parallel circuit worked out?
sum the individual branch currents
Who discover parallel circuit?
The concept of a parallel circuit was discovered by German physicist Gustav Kirchhoff in the 19th century. He formulated Kirchhoff's circuit laws, which describe how currents and voltages behave in a network of interconnected circuit elements, including parallel branches.
How many parts can currents take in series and parallel circuits?
Series circuit: one path. Parallel circuit: One path for each branch (two or more).
What happens if current flows through 2 parallel current in the same direction?
With the possible exception of some circuits that have inductance and capacitance in parallel and are excited by a pulse or an alternating voltage, the currents in two parallel branches of a circuit are ALWAYS in the same direction.
Is An open in the main line of a parallel circuit causes all individual branch currents to be zero?
Yes, an open in main line of a parallel circuit will effect the entire circuit current and make the whole circuit current zero
