Series Circuit
A series circuit there is only one path for the electrons to flow (see image of series circuit). The main disadvantage of a series circuit is that if there is a break in the circuit the entire circuit is open and no current will flow. An example of a series would the the lights on many inexpensive Christmas trees. If one light goes out all of them will.
Parallel Circuit
In a parallel circuit the different parts of the electric circuit are on several different branches. There are several different paths that electrons can flow. If there is a break in one branch of the circuit electrons can still flow in other branches (see image of parallel circuit). Your home is wired in a parallel circuit so if one light bulb goes out the other will stay on.
HOPE THIS HELPS YOU MATE!!
I HAVE ALSO GIVEN THE EXPLANATION THINKING THAT IT MIGHT HELP YOU.
THANK YOU.
Answer:
R = 2Ω
Explanation:
Potential difference (V) = current (I) * Resistance (R)
V = IR
I = 2.0A
V = 10v
R = ?
V = IR
R = V / I
R = 10 / 2
R = 2Ω
The resistance across the wire is 2Ω
Answer:
162.8 K
Explanation:
initial current = io
final current, i = io/8
Let the potential difference is V.
coefficient of resistivity, α = 43 x 10^-3 /K
Let the resistance is R and the final resistance is Ro.
The resistance varies with temperature
R = Ro ( 1 + α ΔT)
V/i = V/io (1 + α ΔT )
8 = 1 + 43 x 10^-3 x ΔT
7 = 43 x 10^-3 x ΔT
ΔT = 162.8 K
Thus, the rise in temperature is 162.8 K.
Answer:
Explanation:
To analyze the behavior of black bears during the night. To describe how black bears adapt to life near human. To evaluate the decline in the number of black bear.
If a circuit has a current of 3.6 Amps and resistance of 5 Ohms, then Ohm's law can be used to find the voltage. Ohm's law states that the voltage is equal to the product of current and resistance (V=IR). In this case the voltage is equal to 3.6 Amps x 5 Ohms = 18.0 Volts. The law can also be used with the rearranged equation to obtain current or resistance.
