Are the lamps in series or parallel?
(a) Are the lamps in series or parallel?
(b) The student has made a mistake in this circuit. What is the mistake?
(c) Draw a circuit diagram to show the correct way to connect the circuit. Use the proper circuit symbols in your diagram.
उत्तर
(a) The lamps are connected in series.
(b) The student has connected the ammeter in parallel with the lamps. It should be connected in series.

State the factors on which the strength of electric current flowing in a given conductor depends.
Draw a circuit diagram showing two electric lamps connected in parallel together with a cell and a switch that works both lamps. Mark an â’¶ on your diagram to show where an ammeter should be placed to measure the current.
The lamps in a house hold circuit are connected in parallel because:
(a) this way they required less current
(b) if one lamp fails the others remain lit
(c) this way they require less power
(d) if one lamp fails the other also fail
The following circuit diagram shows three resistors 2 Ω, 4 Ω and R Ω connected to a battery of e.m.f 2V and internal resistance 3 Ω. If the main current of 0.25 A flows through the circuit, find:
- the p.d. across the 4 Ω resistors,
- the p.d. across the internal resistance of the cell,
- the p.d. across the R Ω or 2 Ω resistors, and
- the value of R.
In the circuit shown in fig. 6, find the reading of the ammeter A when the switch S is
(a) Opened.
(b) Closed.
Three resistances, of which two are equal when connected in series have an effective resistance of 30 ohms. When the three resistances are connected in parallel, the effective resistances is 3 ohms. Find the values of the individual resistances.
The SI unit for electric current is the coulomb.
Conventionally, the direction of the current is taken as:
