Answer:

  technician A is correct

Explanation:

Technician B has circuit topologies confused. In a series circuit, there is only one path for electrical current to take. In a parallel circuit, the current will divide between paths in proportion to the inverse of their resistance. The least resistance path will have the most current.

Technician A is mostly correct.

1. Examine the following circuit. Find RT, I3, R1, R2, R3, V1, V2 and V3. Show all of your work clearly below.
Mkey [24]

Explanation:

Ohm's law is used here. V = IR, and variations. The voltage across all elements is the same in this parallel circuit. (V1 =V2 =V3)

The total supply current is the sum of the currents in each of the branches. (It = I1 +I2 +I3)

Rt = (8 V)/(8 A) = 1 Ω . . . . supply voltage divided by supply current

I3 = 8A -3A -4A = 1 A . . . . supply current not flowing through other branches

R1 = (8 V)/(3 A) = 8/3 Ω

R2 = (8 V)/(4 A) = 2 Ω

R3 = (8 V)/(I3) = (8 V)/(1 A) = 8 Ω

V1 = V2 = V3 = 8 V

Many radios can be operated either by plugging them into the wall or by using batteries. How can a radio use either source of cu
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The electric current from the batteries installed in a radio supplies direct current (DC) electricity to the radio components directly as an alternative source to the Alternating Current (AC) converted to DC by the power unit located at the radio end of the cable plugged into the wall outlet.

Explanation:

Part of the power unit in a radio includes an AC to DC converter, which is an electrical circuit that is able to convert the alternating current power input from the wall outlet into a direct current output to the radio with which the radio can work

The alternative source of electric current from the batteries installed in a radio bypasses the AC to DC converter and supplies power directly to the radio so it can also work.
