How will the current change in a series circuit if more resistors are added to it?

Physics

Vladimir79 [104]4 years ago

In a series circuit, the current through each of the components is the same, and the voltage across the circuit is the sum of the voltages across each component. In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each of the components is the same, and the total current<span> is the sum of the currents through each component.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

The current decreases.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>From the Ohm's law, current through a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference at constant temperature and pressure.</u></em>
  • Mathematically; I =V/R, where R is the resistance, I is the current and V is the voltage or the potential difference.
  • <em><u>Current is inversely proportional to the resistance, thus and increase in resistance decreases the amount of current in a circuit and vice versa.</u></em>
  • <em><u>In a series circuit, as more and more resistors are added, the effective or equivalent resistance of the circuit increases and the total current of the circuit decreases.</u></em>

A myopic (nearsighted) lawyer has a far point of 60.0 cm. What is the diopter value of suitable corrective contacts?
Vlada [557]

Answer:

P = -1.67 dP

Explanation:

given,

myopic lawyer has a far point of = 60.0 cm = 0.6 m

If a person is suffering from myopia then he cannot see the farthest object clearly.

Image of far object does not form on the retina so, the image appear to be blur.

using lens formula

      \dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u} = \dfrac{1}{f}

                -\dfrac{1}{0.6} = \dfrac{1}{f}

                     \dfrac{1}{f} =P

                              P = -\dfrac{1}{0.6}

                              P = -1.67 dP

A hungry 169169 kg lion running northward at 77.377.3 km/hr attacks and holds onto a 31.731.7 kg Thomson's gazelle running eastw
navik [9.2K]

Answer:  75,242.9 m/s

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following parameters

mass of Lion (ML) = 169,169 kg

velocity of lion (VL) = 777,377.7 m/s

mass of Gazelle (Mg) = 31,731.7 kg

velocity of Gazelle (Vg) = 63,863.8 kg

mass of Lion and Gazelle (M) = 200,900.7 kg

velocity of Lion and Gazelle (V) = ?

The first figure below shows the motion of the Lion and Gazelle with their direction.

The second diagram shows the motion of the Lion and Gazelle with their directions rearranged to form a right angle triangle.

from the triangle formed we can get the velocity of the Lion and Gazelle immediately after collision using their momentum and Phytaghoras theorem

momentum = mass x velocity

momentum of the Lion = 169,169 x 77,377.3 = 13,089,840,463.7 kgm/s

momentum of the Gazelle = 31,731.7 x 63,863.8 = 2,026,506,942.46 kgm/s

momentum of the Lion and Gazelle = 200,900.7  x V

now applying Phytaghoras theorem we have

13,089,840,463.7 + 2,026,506,942.46 =  200,900.7 x V

15,116,347,406.16 = 200,900.7 x V

V = 75,242.9 m/s

What is the value of the equivalent resistance for the three resistors connected in series?
Harman [31]

The value of the equivalent resistance for the three resistors connected in series will be the sum of the three values.

To find the answer, we have to know more about the equivalent resistance.

<h3>What is meant by equivalent resistance?</h3>
  • equivalent resistance is the total value of the resistance connected in a circuit.
  • If n resistors are connected in series, then the equivalent resistance will be,

                R_E=R_1+R_2+..........+R_n

  • In our question we have three resistors. Thus, the equivalent resistance will be,

               R_E=R_1+R_2+R_3

Thus, we can conclude that, the value of the equivalent resistance for the three resistors connected in series will be the sum of the three values.
