When a group of resistors are connected in series with their energy source, the resulting equivalent resistance of the circuit is: equal to the individual resistance of each component false less than the individual resistance of each component false more than the individual resistance of each component true not as large as it would have been compared to their parallel version false Single In a household setting, it is desirable that the electrical connections for lighting and appliances are in parallel instead of series so that: the total equivalent resistance of the household's circuits are much lower than that of the devices false the total equivalent resistance of the household's circuit become higher, thereby conserving electric bills false the likelihood of short circuit to the house's wiring system caused by any one of the devices is lowered false each device will still continue to function in case one of them malfunctions true Single Who formulated the set of rules that facilitated the proper calculation of equivalent resistances of resistors connected in complex circuits? Rudolf Virchow false Gustav Kirchhoff true Robert Koch false Simon Ohm false Single At a junction that connects multiple conductors, the current is regarded as negative if: current flows into the junction false current flows out of the junction true current does not accumulate there false current tends to decrease there false Single According to the Loop Rule (or Voltage law) the total potential difference within a closed loop is: negative false zero true positive false consistent false Single To build a simple RC circuit, you need an EMF source and what else? a resistor and capacitor in parallel false at least one resistor and one capacitor true two capacitors and one resistor false two resistors and one capacitor false Single An RC circuit is in steady capacity when: Q(t) = Q0e false Q(t) > 0 false Q(t) = 0 false Qmax = εCp true Single When a capacitor is disconnected from its power source, you must multiply what factor to e(-t/RC) to find the current of the circuit at time t? Q0C false R false Q0/RC true ε/R false Single What is the relaxation time of an RC circuit with resistance 1 Ω, capacitance of 2 F, and voltage of 2 V? 0.5 s false 1 s false 2 s true 4 s false Single How many junctions can you form when you connect two resistors and an EMF source in series? 0 true 1 false 2 false 4 false Single
