In a circuit the voltmeter reads 12 V across a branch that contains two equal resistors in series. The voltage across each resistor is:
Which instrument should be placed in series to measure current?
A 12 V battery is connected to a 6 O resistor. The current through the resistor is:
If three identical lamps are connected in series across a fixed battery, compared with one lamp alone the brightness of each lamp is:
The power dissipated in a resistor can be calculated from P = I^2 R. If current doubles through a resistor, power becomes:
Two resistors, 10 O and 20 O, are connected in parallel. The total resistance is:
A battery supplies 12 V to two branches in parallel. Branch A has 3 O, branch B has 6 O. The currents in A and B are:
When resistors are added in parallel to a circuit powered by a fixed battery, the current drawn from the battery:
Which action will reduce the total resistance of a circuit?
Which equation gives the equivalent resistance, R_eq, for two resistors R1 and R2 in parallel?
A 12 V supply is connected to three identical resistors in parallel. If one resistor is disconnected the total current from the supply will:
