Why does the current splits in parallel circuit and why does the voltage remains equal?​

Physics

Xelga [282]3 years ago

<u>Voltage:</u>

It is basically the difference between the charges of the materials on the ends of the Wire

<em>also known as potential difference</em>

It is very similar to the movement of air, it moves from higher density to lower density. in this case, the change in density is the potential difference

So, since voltage is the difference between the charge available on the ends of a wire. Even if the wire splits in parallel circuit, the difference of the charges remains the same

<em>the more the potential difference, the faster electrons will move to the material with lower charge</em>

<u>Current:</u>

Current is the amount of electrons moving through a cross-section of a wire in a period of time

So basically, it is the amount of electrons that move across a given point on a wire in a period of time

If the wire splits, we will have the same amount of electrons moving through as they would if the wire was not split but now, the electrons passing are divided and hence, if we measure the current after the split, we will find that we have a lower current

that's because we have less charge moving through the cross-section of the wire since some of those electrons are moving through a different wire

That's why the current splits in a parallel circuit

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

a. A

Explanation:

Kepler's First Law says that the orbits of planets are ellipses with the sun at one focus of the ellipse. Moreover, Kepler’s Second Law says that the line joining the planet to the sun sweeps out equal areas in equal times as it moves along its orbit. Finally, Kepler’s Third Law says that the ratio of the squares of the periods for two planets is equal to the ratio of the cubes of their semi-major axes.

By these laws, the comet A will have lower orbital speed.

The humidity you feel in the southern states of the U.S. is _____. part of the water cycle water vapor caused by the Sun's heat
Likurg_2 [28]
Hey there!

The answer is : 
The <span>humidity you feel in the southern states of the U.S. is water vapor 
water vapor is between a gas and liquid so that is what gives a humid feel in the hot sun

Hopes this helps u :D

Two bicyclists are accelerating forward in a straight line, and Biker 1 has less mass than Biker 2. If the net force on the bike
Solnce55 [7]

If  Biker 1 has less mass than Biker 2 it the follows that biker 1 has a greater acceleration than Biker 2.​

<h3>What is the Newton second law?</h3>

The Newton second law gives the relationship between the force and the acceleration. We know that; acceleration = Force/mass.

Now if Biker 1 has less mass than Biker 2 it the follows that biker 1 has a greater acceleration than Biker 2.​
