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

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>

Rom4ik [11]
The formula for the potential energy, EP is given by

EP = m × g × h

where:
m is the mass in kilograms
g is the gravity (9.8 m/s²)
h is the height in meters

EP = 6 × 9.8 × 2 = 117.6 kg-m²/s²

A car transports its passengers between 3 buildings. It moves from the first building to the second building, 4.76km away, in a
BigorU [14]

Answer:

1) a = 6.14 km

2) b = 4.69 km

Explanation:

Let the first building be A, second building be B and third building be C.

Now, bearing of A = 4.76 km in a direction 37° north of east

Bearing of B = 69° west of north

Bearing of C = 28° east of south

Thus if this 3 points form a triangle, we will have the following angles;

Angle at point A = 28 + (90 - 37) = 81°

Angle at point B = 28 + (90 - 69) = 49°

Angle at point C = 180 - (81 + 49) = 50°

Now, the distance between second and third building is "a" which is represented by BC in the triangle attached while the given distance of 4.76 represents side AB. Thus;

Using sine rule, we can find "a".

a/sin 81 = 4.76/sin 50

a = 6.14 km

B) distance between first and third building is AB in the triangle depicted by "b".

Similar to the first problem, we will use sine rule again.

b/sin49 = 4.76/sin 50

b = 4.69 km

MArishka [77]

Answer: 1. higher than it was before they started running

Explanation: As the vacationers run towards the back(stern) of the ship the exerting more pressure against the pressure exerted by the wave supporting the moving ship,the pressure exerted on the moving ship will be increased, leading to a slight increase in the speed of the ship compared to the speed before they started running towards the back(stern) of the ship.
