Explain how your data support the relationships observed. For the combination circuit, explain the relationship between the current output of the power supply and the current through each path in the parallel circuit. For the combination circuit, explain the relationship between the voltage output at the power supply and the voltage across the two paths. It doesn't have to go through everything (extra ways through the circle)ĥ. Explain how your data support the relationship observed. A DJ uses a 110 volt outlet to plug in a strobe light. If the air pump is powered by a 9 volt battery with a resistance of 18 ohms, what is the amount of current flowing through the circuit Circuit Schematic Calculations 2. Explain the relationship between the current output of the power supply and the current through each diode in the parallel circuit. On a camping trip, you decide to use a cordless air pump to inflate an inflatable mattress. Explain the relationship between the voltage output of the power supply and the voltage across each diode in the parallel circuit.

They are connected to the same power sourceĤ. Explain why the current is the same between the diodes as it is from the power supply in step 8. The voltage from the battery is how it originally starts, but it could decrease due to going through resistors.ģ.
#Activity 1.2.3 electrical circuits physical series#
Explain the relationship between the current output at the power supply and the current through each component in the series circuit. Explain the difference between the voltage output at the battery and the voltage across each component in the series circuit.

Explain the difference between a series and a parallel circuit.Ī series circuit is a closed circuit with only one path for the electrons and a parallel circuit is a circuit with multiple pathways for the electrons.Ģ.
