What is the affect of a series circuit on current?

by adding the the resistances in series the total resistance of the circuit increses and thus the crunt flowing in the circuit decrese. Ans 2 . the current in series circuit of constant resistance will always be the same . It will not effect the current .


Why would another component effect the electrical current in a series circuit?

All the components in a circuit have a potential effect on the total current used by the circuit. You have to be more specific to get a more precise answer.


The parts of a series circuit are wired one after another so the amount of curren is the?

There is no current at all in the series circuit until the last component is in place, and the order in which they're arranged in the series circuit has no effect on the magnitude of current.


How can an ammeter be connected in a circuit and not effect the flow of current?

The ammeter does affect the flow of current in a circuit, however, the resistance of the ammeter is so small in comparison to the circuit that the effect is negligible. It is connected in series.


Is this your experiment with physics?

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


A circuit that has only one path for the current is called?

Series, because everything in the circuit is in series.


In a series circuit each device that is added to the circuit decreases the?

Ohm's Law answers your question. Voltage = Current x Resistance. In a series circuit you are in effect adding resistance. If the Voltage remains constant then the answer is obvious looking at the equation above.
