What does the size of a current depend on?

The size of a current depends on the voltage applied and the resistance of the circuit.


What is a circuit which will allow flowing current?

As long as an electrical power source is connected to itself with electrical conductors of some kind, then a current will flow through it. How much current will depend on the components used in the circuit.


Does the induced current depend on the resistance of the circuit?

In general, yes, it does. For example, if you move a conductor in a magnetic field, this will induce a certain voltage between the extremes of the conductor; the corresponding current will then depend on the resistance.


What condition are necessary for a current to be present in a circuit?

The only two things needed for current flow are electromotive force or voltage and a conductor. The amount of current flow will depend on the "Resistance" in the circuit.


Does the induced emf in a circuit depend on the resistence of the circuit?

The induced emf in a circuit is not directly dependent on the resistance of the circuit. It is primarily determined by the rate of change of magnetic flux through the circuit. However, the resistance of the circuit can affect the current flow and ultimately impact the magnitude of the induced emf through Ohm's law (V = IR).


What would the current flow be if a short circuit is put across the battery's terminals?

That will depend on the internal resistance of the battery. I = E / R Where I is the current, E is the open circuit battery voltage, and R is the internal resistance of the battery.


What are the circuit effects due to a short circuit or open circuit?

It would depend on the circuit diagram. In some cases, the circuit would be incomplete (simplest case is a battery with a wire attached to just one terminal).Parallel branches that have a connection to the battery without going through other branches are independent of each other. Say you have two parallel branches and a battery. If you short circuit one of the branches, the other branch will not be affected but the battery will be (current through the battery would decrease because taking out a parallel branch increases resistance).In short, it would depend on the circuit diagram. Note that for a nanosecond, there would be current in an open circuit, but after this brief time there would be no current flow in the segment of the circuit that has been shorted.


Why reducing current in circuit?

The current in a circuit is reduced to prevent the circuit from over load.


You are just asking that let us assume you have connected 2 or 3 resistors in a circuit and the current flowing through the circuit and from all the resistors will be same but how?

If the resistors are connected in series, the total resistance will be the sum of the resistances of each resistor, and the current flow will be the same thru all of them. if the resistors are connected in parallel, then the current thru each resistor would depend on the resistance of that resistor, the total resistance would be the inverse of the sum of the inverses of the resistance of each resistor. Total current would depend on the voltage and the total resistance


If you know the current through one resistor in a DC circuit then do you know the current through all the other resistors?

No. Current and voltage are directly proportional to one-another and both are related to resistance by Ohm's law: V = IR or Volts = Current * Resistance So the current will depend upon the voltage and the circuit resistance by rearranging the above equations: I = V/R Meaning that the current will decrease as circuit resistance is increased if the voltage remains constant.


How does the maximum value of the current depend on the frequency of the AC voltage source?

The maximum value of the current in an AC circuit depends on the frequency of the voltage source. As the frequency increases, the maximum current value also increases.


How short circuit current measure?
