Which quantity is the same for every component in a series circuit?
Which instrument should be placed in parallel with a component to measure voltage across it?
A 12 V battery is connected to a 6 O resistor. The power dissipated in the resistor is:
A 9 V battery is connected to resistors 2 O and 4 O in series. The current in the circuit is:
In a circuit two resistors, 10 O and 20 O, are connected in series. The total resistance is:
In a simple series circuit containing a battery and three resistors, what is the sum of the potential differences across the three resistors?
A 9 V battery is connected to resistors 2 O and 4 O in series. The potential difference across the 4 O resistor is:
The power dissipated in a resistor can be calculated from P = I^2 R. If current doubles through a resistor, power becomes:
If three identical lamps are each connected in parallel across the same battery, compared with one lamp alone the brightness of each lamp is:
In a circuit the voltmeter reads 12 V across a branch that contains two equal resistors in series. The voltage across each resistor is:
In a series circuit with three resistors, if one resistor is removed (open circuit), what happens to the current in the remaining resistors?
