Question

Decide if the following statements are true or false. Add an explanation for your answer if you are uncertain. This may get you partial credit if your choice is incorrect. A series circuit will ALWAYS have more total resistance than a parallel circuit (when composed of the same set of resistors). ___ Resistors are designed to use up current in a circuit. ___ Two magnetic poles will repel each other if they are the same type ___ The electric force follows Newton's Laws just like other forces. ___ Lightning bolts occur within a storm cloud because two parts of the cloud have opposite types of net charge. ___

Explanation / Answer

1) Rnet = R1 + R2 --------- (in series)

1/Rnet = 1/R1 + 1/R2 ---------- (in parallel)

in series the resistance will be greater , TRUE

2) resistance decreases the current . so The answer is TRUE

3) TRUE

4)EACH AND EVERY FORCE FOLLOWS NEWTON'S LAW.TRUE

5) TRUE
