Are the lines of latitude of parallel or perpendicular to each other?
They are parallel to each other.
What is a prallel line?
Parallel lines are lines that no matter how long they get will never run into each other. _______________________ ____________________________________ These are parallel lines. You can see that if you made either one of them shorter or longer, they would never meet. / and _ are not parallel lines because they would run into each other.
Two lines that never intersect?
The answer would be parallel lines these lines never meet or cross each other.
Are all of the edges of a rectangular prism parallel?
Not all edges are parallel to each other, only the opposite edges are parallel to each other
Two lines parallel to the same plane are parallel to each other?
they are transversals to each others
Can each branch in a parallel circuit may hold several resistors?
Yes, but then it would be a 'series-parallel' circuit, not a 'parallel' circuit!
How do you find resistors in parallel?
Measure the voltage appearing across each resistor. If they are identical, and equal to the supply voltage, then the resistors are in parallel.
How can you get 25ohm total resistance from 100 resistors having 1 ohm resistance?
Connect 50 of them in series. This would have 50 ohm as equivalent. Same way have another 50 pieces in series. This again would have 50 ohm as effective value. Now connect these in parallel to each other. Now the effective would become as 25 ohm.
Each branch in a parallel circuit may hold several resistors yes or no?
No. What you are describing is a series-parallel circuit, not a parallel circuit.
What would be the total current and voltage dropped for each of the two resistors 7 and 9 ohms be if they're supply voltage is 230 volts?
Please specify whether the resistors are connected in series or in parallel.
Given 4 resistors each have equivalent resistance of 100 ohms show how these resistors might be combined to produce an equivalent resistance of a 40 ohms b 250 ohms c 100 ohms?
a) Put 2 of the resistors in series to make a 200 ohm resistor. Then put the 100, 100, and 200 ohm resistors in parallel for 40 ohms. b) Put 2 resistors in parallel for 50 ohms. Put the 50, 100, and 100 ohm resistors in series for 250 ohms. c) Put 2 resistors in parallel for 50 ohms. Repeat with other 2 resistors. Put the two 50 ohm resistors in series for 100 ohms. This configuration can withstand 4 times the wattage of each individual resistor.
What is a parilel circuit?
A parallel circuit is one where the elements in question are connected "side-by-side". The term is generally use to contrast against a series circuit where the elements are connected "end-to-end". As an example take two resistors and arbitrarily label the leads "A" and "B". If you connect the two resistors to each other such that A on one is connected to A on the other and B on the one is connected to B on the other, you have created a parallel connection of the two resistors.
When a 30.0-V emf device is placed across two resistors in series a current of 14.0 A is flowing in each of the resistors. When the same emf device is placed across the same two resistors in parallel?
There is insufficient information in the question to answer it. 30 volts generating 14 amperes means the two resistors have a total series resistance of 2.143 ohms. Since no relationship was stated, we don't know the value of the individual resistors. If the two resistors had the same resistance, the net parallel resistance would be 0.536 ohms, and a current of 56 amperes would flow.
What is the PD across two resistors connected parallel to a battery of emf 6V?
The potential difference across two resistors connected in parallel to a battery with a potential difference of 6 volts is 6 volts. Kirchoff's Voltage Law: The signed sum of the voltage drops in a series circuit is zero. This means that that the two series circuits involving the battery and each resistor have the same voltage across each other, and the series circuit involving the two resistors have the same voltage across each other.
You are just asking that let us assume you have connected 2 or 3 resistors in a circuit and the current flowing through the circuit and from all the resistors will be same but how?
If the resistors are connected in series, the total resistance will be the sum of the resistances of each resistor, and the current flow will be the same thru all of them. if the resistors are connected in parallel, then the current thru each resistor would depend on the resistance of that resistor, the total resistance would be the inverse of the sum of the inverses of the resistance of each resistor. Total current would depend on the voltage and the total resistance
What are Relationship between the voltage drop across the resistors and the currents through the resistors when resistors are connected in parallel?
A: The relationship is that the current will divide for each paths in a parallel circuit and the voltage drop across each will be the source voltage. In a series circuit the current will remain the same for each component but the voltage will divide to reflect each different component value. And the sum of all of the voltage drops will add to the voltage source.
How can you connect resistors to produce an equivalent resistance which is the same as the resistance of each individual resistor?
You can connect 4 resistors in series-parallel, i.e. two in series, both in parallel with another two, and the effective resistance would be the same as one resistor. Similarly, you can connect nine resistors in 3x3 series-parallel, or 16 resistors in 4x4 series-parallel, etc. to get the same resistance of one resistor.
