MLR Electrical Flashcard 4

Front

What are the 3 basic types of electrical circuits? Options: Simple, AC, and AC direct, Series, Parallel, and DC indirect, AC, DC, and DC direct, Series, Parallel, and Series/Parallel

Back

Series, Parallel, and Series/Parallel

Front

Current in a Series circuit is:

Back

The same throughout

Front

Which of these is not a Series circuit element?
  Source, Connector,  Load,  Ground

Back

Connector

Front

If a Series circuit has two loads of 8Ω and 4Ω, what do you know about their voltage drops?

Back

The voltage drop across the 8Ω load is twice that of the 4Ω load.

Front

In a Series circuit with two identical loads, the voltage across each load will be:

Back

the same

Front

If a Series circuit has four loads of 12Ω, 2Ω, 8Ω, and 1Ω, what will the Total Resistance be?

Back

23Ω

Front

If a Series Circuit has two loads of 4Ω and 2Ω, with Voltage drops of 8 volts and 4 volts respectively, how will the Current between the two loads differ from the Current before the first load?

Back

The Currents will be the same

Front

Total Resistance in a Series circuit is:

Back

the sum of the individual resistances

Front

A Series circuit has two 8Ω loads with 6V drops across each one. If a third 8Ω load is added to the circuit, what will be the voltage drop across the first load in the circuit?

Back

The voltage drop across the first load will remain 6V.

Front

A Series circuit:

Back

has only one path for current to flow
