When electric circuit is closed no current flow through it IS the statement is correct?

yes... this is possible if a diode i connected in reverse bias with a battery and a resistor for example. A diode in reverse bias means its anode will be connected to positive terminal of the battery and its cathode to the negative terminal of the battery. In such a case, minimal current flows through the circuit which can be neglected.


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.


Voltage drop of 15 Volts across 2.7 killo ohm resistor?

You just stated that the voltage across the resistor is 15 volts, so that's your answer ! If the resistor is connected to a 15-V battery or to the output of a 15-V power supply, then a meter across the resistor is also across the power supply, and reads 15 volts. The current through the resistor is (V/R) = (15/2700) = 5.56 mA. The power dissipated by the resistor (and delivered by the battery) is (V2/R) = (225/2700) = 0.083 watt.


When a resistor has another one connected in parallel with it is the combined resistor greaterthe same or smaller?

Think it through. You are adding a second path for current flow. Current flow will increase to some extent. Therefore, with more current flow, resistance must....


What circumstances is it possible for the rms current drawn from a certain source to have the same magnitude when an inductance is connected in series with a given impedance?

The same as what? when an inductor is connected in series with a resistor and a current passed through them, the voltages across the resistor and inductor are equal when the reactance is equal to the resistance: 2.pi.f.L = R

How far can the electric current of a Duracell battery travel through a long crocodile clip?

All the way along when the crocodile clip is connected to a resistor, when the other end of the resistor is connected to the other side of the battery.


A 10 ohms resistor is connected aross a 12 volt battery How much current is there through the resistor?

Voltage = Current * ResistanceVoltage = 12VResistance = 10 ohmsCurrent = Voltage/ResistanceCurrent = 12V/10 ohmsCurrent = 1.2 Amps


What is the relationship between resistors connected in series and the flow of current through them?

When resistors are connected in series, the flow of current through them is the same. This means that the current passing through each resistor is equal, as it has to pass through each resistor in the series circuit.


What type of meter would be connected on both sides to a resistor in a current?

A multimeter set to measure current (in amperes or milliamperes) would be connected in series to the resistor to measure the current flowing through it. The multimeter would be placed in series with the resistor to accurately measure the current passing through it.

The total current that flows through a circuit is the same as the current that flows through each individual resistor connected in series?

True


A 120 ohm resistor a 60 ohm resistor and a 40 ohm resistor are connected in parallel to a 120 volt power source. What is the current running through the 120 ohm resistor?

1amp


Does current flow through a resistor, or does it flow across a resistor?

Current flows through a resistor, not across it.


How does current change through a resistor?

When an electric current flows through a resistor, the resistor resists the flow of the current, causing a decrease in the current. This decrease in current is proportional to the resistance of the resistor, as described by Ohm's Law.


Two resistors are connected in series to a 9 volt battery. The larger resistor provides twice as many ohms resistance as the smaller one. The current through the circuit is 3 amps. What is the resista?

Will current flow in a higher resistance or in lower resistance if they are connected in parallel to a voltage source?

Current will always flow in both resistors, but the one with the lower resistance will have more current flow through it. The value of the current in each resistor is calculated by dividing the voltage of the source by the resistance of the individual resistor. As long as the capability of the power source isn't exceeded, the current through each resistor isn't affected by the presence of the other resistor. Said another way, if two resistors are connected in parallel across a source, neither one "cares" that the other resistor is connected across the source. The two resistors work independently.
