What else can I help you with?
What restricts the flow of energy?
You can change current by altering potential difference or resistance... But assuming the voltage is constant, the resistance of the circuit restricts the flow of electrical current.
What is the type of circuit that will not work when a component burns out?
In a series circuit, if one component burns out, the circuit will not work because the current flow is interrupted by the burnt-out component. This is because components in a series circuit share the same current.
In electronics which component restricts the direction of movement of charge carriers?
A diode restricts the direction of movement of charge carriers in an electronic circuit. It allows current to flow in one direction (forward bias) but blocks it in the reverse direction (reverse bias). By controlling the flow of current, diodes are essential for rectifying and regulating voltage in electronic devices.
Why must a circuit be closed in order for current to a flow?
A circuit must be closed in order for a current to flow because it helps keep a current flow pass. When the switch is closed on a circuit there is a constant flow. When the switches open the flow is disturbed around the circuit.
What happens to an electric current when a circuit is closed?
When a circuit is closed, meaning there is a complete path for the electric current to flow, the current will flow from the positive terminal of the voltage source through the circuit components and back to the negative terminal. This flow of current allows electrical energy to be transferred and work to be done in the circuit.
Is a battery a resistor if not what is?
No, a battery is not a resistor. A battery provides electrical energy, while a resistor is a component that restricts the flow of current in a circuit.
How does a resistor affect the flow of current in an electrical circuit?
A resistor restricts the flow of current in an electrical circuit by resisting the flow of electrons. This causes a decrease in the amount of current that can pass through the circuit.
What are the components of a resistor?
Resistance is the property of a component which restricts the flow of electric current.
What restricts the flow of energy?
You can change current by altering potential difference or resistance... But assuming the voltage is constant, the resistance of the circuit restricts the flow of electrical current.
What circuit component serves as pathway for current flow?
The circuits conductor serves as a pathway for current to flow.

In a series circuit, if one component burns out, the circuit will not work because the current flow is interrupted by the burnt-out component. This is because components in a series circuit share the same current.

What component resists flow of current in an electrical circuit?
transistor
What happens if one of the components in a series or parallel circuit i removed or is defective?
In a series circuit, if one component is removed or defective, the circuit will be broken and no current will flow. In a parallel circuit, if one component is removed or defective, the current will simply bypass that component and continue to flow through the other branches.
What is the difference between resistor and insulator?
A resistor is a component that limits the flow of electric current in a circuit, while an insulator is a material that restricts the flow of electricity. Resistors are used to control the amount of current in a circuit, whereas insulators are used to prevent the flow of electricity altogether.
What is resistance reading?
A measurement of opposition to electric current flow in a component or circuit.
Does it matter were we put the switch in a series circuit?
Yes, the placement of the switch does matter in a series circuit. Placing it before a component will interrupt the flow of current to the entire circuit, while placing it after a component will only interrupt the current to that specific component.
