What is the different between series and parallel connection?
In parallel connection all the positive terminals are connected with positive of the source and all the negative terminals are connected to negative of the source. Whereas in series connection one positive terminal is connected to the negative of another, like wise it goes on and finally the positive end is connected to the negative of the source.
What complete path is formed when a wire connected to both terminals of an electrical source?
Potential energy
How can a potentiometer be a rheostat?
A rheostat and a potentiometer are two different applications for the same device, a variable resistor. These devices have three terminals. Two terminals are connected across the complete resistor, while the third terminal is connected to a controllable wiper. The variable resistance is provided between the wiper terminal and either one of the other two terminals.When used to control current, it is called a rheostat. When used to control voltage, it is called a potentiometer.
How does an antenna convert electromagnetic waves into a current?
According to Faraday's law: "When current is passed through a conductor, an EM field is produced surrounding it." As an antenna contains one or more conductors, the terminals of which are connected to some voltage, when this voltage at the terminals is applied, it produces/induces the alternating current which radiates the elements in the electromagnetic field. (Transmission) The reverse of this occurs in reception; where the electromagnetic field from another source induces an alternating current in the antenna, and a corresponding voltage at the antenna's terminals.
What two factors determine the output energy of a battery?
The energy delivered by a battery would depend on-- the battery's voltage-- the resistance of the load connected across its output terminals-- the length of the time the load is connectedThe power delivered by the battery is [ (voltage)2 divided by (load resistance) ].The total energy delivered by the battery is [ (power) multiplied by (time the load is connected) ].
What is a positive or negative pole of an electrochemical cell?
They are called the electrodes or terminals. The parts of a cell where current leaves and enters the cell. The cathode is the positive, the anode is the negative.
Is electrode and conductor same?
No. Electrodes are the positive and negative terminals in and open circuit. A conductor is a substance that an electric current will pass through. Electrodes are usually made of a conductor.
What are the terminals connected in a ceiling fans?
Terminal forks
What happen when the wires are connected from the terminals of the socket to the terminal of the dry cell?
None of The terminals would work
What is a battery end called?
Electrodes... Positive (anode) and Negative (cathode) electrodes which are attached to the terminals. The electrodes provide the chemical energy which is converted to a flow of electrons. And the electrolyte, the electrolyte separates the electrodes but allows for the passages of electrons and ions for the electro-chemical reaction of the electrodes.
How is carbon zinc dry cell produces a voltage difference between the positive and negative terminals?
When the terminals are connected in the circuit
How many terminals does a variable resistor normally have?
2 terminals. One is connected to the sliding contact. Other is to the coil of wire.
What does cross connected mean?
In electrical terminology it means that wires have been connected under the wrong terminals.
What would happen if you connected a positive cable to both terminals?
***********BOOM**************
The building supervisor is connected directly to the chiller and also to the?
air terminals
What is the name of a variable resistor with 3 terminals?
It's called a 'variable resistor'. However, it can function as a 'rheostat' (to control current) when two terminals are connected, or as a 'potentiometer' (to control voltage) when three terminals are connected. The terms, 'rheostat' and 'potentiometer' do not describe the device itself, but how it is being used.
Why do all electrical appliances have terminals?
To allow the wires to be connected to a source of electricity.
