how current reacts in combination circuits

Question 1

Ohm’s Law will apply regardless of whether the circuit is a series, parallel, or combination circuit.

Answer 1

true

Question 2

In a series circuit, the ? is the same at any point in the circuit.

Answer 2

current

Question 3

In a series circuit, the total resistance is the reciprocal of the individual resistances.

Answer 3

false

Question 4

In a series circuit, the sum of the voltage drops of the individual resistors must equal the applied voltage.

Answer 4

true

Question 5

In a parallel circuit, the ? across any circuit branch is the same as the applied voltage.

Answer 5

voltage

Question 6

In a parallel circuit, the total current is ?

Answer 6

the sum of the current through all of the current paths

Question 7

Three resistors of unequal value are connected in parallel. To calculate the equivalent resistance of this group, the ? must be used.

Answer 7

reciprocal equation

Question 8

Combination circuits are circuits in which both series and parallel conditions exist.

Answer 8

true

Question 9

In parallel circuits, when the voltages applied to the branch and the branch resistances are known, the ? for each branch can easily be calculated.

Answer 9

current

Question 10

In a combination circuit, the amount of current that passes through each resistor is exactly the same.

Answer 10

false

Question 11

Current leaving the voltage source and entering a circuit has exactly the same value as the return current at the point it reenters the voltage source. This law applies to ? circuits.

Answer 11

all

Question 12

To find the voltage drop across a component when the resistance and current are known, the formula ? is used.

Answer 12

E=I*R
