Depends on what circuit you're refering to, a parallel circuit has parallel lines because it allows for voltage to pass through the circuit, giving more power.

What type of circuit has the same voltage drop across each of its components?

A parallel circuit. Since a parallel circuit has only two nodes, there can be only one voltage difference between the nodes.


How much voltage does each branch of a parallel circuit?

Yes. The voltage across every branch of a parallel circuit is the same. (It may not be the supply voltage, if there's another component between the power supply and either or both ends of the parallel circuit.)


Why are house lights parallel?

in parallel series if one of the light stops working also the remaining lights can workAnswerLamps will only operate at their power when they are subjected to their rated voltage. The only way of subjecting all your lamps to the same (rated) voltage, is to connect them in parallel (because the same voltage appears across each branch of a parallel circuit).The fact that the other lamps will continue to work if one lamp fails is a bonus!


What will happen to voltage in a parallel circuit?

In a parallel circuit, voltage is the same across each branch of the circuit. This means that the voltage remains constant regardless of the number of devices or components connected in parallel.


Can 3 of four batteries be wired up in series and 1 in parallel. Will this setup drain the parallel battery?

No it will impose the voltage of the three series batteries across the terminals of the paralleled battery. Batteries can only be parallel when all of the voltage potentials are near equal.


What is the voltage drop running through the parallel potion of the circuit?

A: There is no voltage drop running through in a parallel circuit but rather the voltage drop across each branch of a parallel circuit is the same


Why are parallel circuit better idea than putting them in a series?

It depends, of course, what 'them' are! But, for most electrical loads, their power ratings only apply when they are subjected to their rated voltage (you may have noticed that lamps have both their rated power and their rated voltage printed on their glass envelope -e.g. 100 W / 230 V). The only way to subject a number of different loads to a specified rated voltage is to connect them is parallel, as the voltage across each branch of a parallel circuit is equal to the supply voltage.


What is true about the sum of the voltages across the components in a circuit compared to the voltage of the cell?

voltage is devided only in series circuit and is the same at the parallel circuit


If Three 12 volt batteries are connected in parallel what is the effect on the circuit?

There will be no effect on the voltage. That is the effective voltage will be only 12 volt. But there will be increase of current.


High voltage field windings are connected series or parallel?

high voltage field windings are connected in parallel


What is the same in each branch of a parallel circuit?

In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each branch is the same.


What happens to supply voltage if additional resistance is connected in parallel circuit?

The supply voltage in a parallel circuit remains the same regardless of the number of additional resistors connected. The voltage across each resistor in a parallel circuit is the same as the supply voltage. Adding more resistors in parallel will increase the total current drawn from the supply.
