Definition of series circuit - correct answerCurrent flows in a single path through all
components
In which direction does current flow? - correct answerNegative to positive
Current is the ____ throughout whole circuit - correct answerSame
4 steps of troubleshooting - correct answerAnalyze, check setup, calculate/measure, check
results
An open series component drops _____ volts - correct answerApplied
Resistance is how much over open component? - correct answerMax or infinite
Short provides how much resistance? - correct answerNo resistance
Shorts read how many volts? - correct answer0 volts!!!
Is current or volts the same at all points in parallel circuit? - correct answerVolts. Each
branch reads applied volts
Open components in parallel branch have how much current? - correct answer0 A
Current is (blank) with an open in parallel branch - correct answerLowered
What happens to current with a short in parallel branch? - correct answerIncreases to MAX
Opening what series-parallel component will cause amps to be 0? - correct answerSeries
component. Volts dropped across open
Current (increases/decreases) if a parallel component opens in series-parallel - correct
answerDecreases
With open in parallel branch of s-p circuit: series volt drops(increase/decrease) and parallel
volt drop (increase/decrease) - correct answerDecrease, increase
Current increases or decreases with short in series component (s-p circuit) - correct
answerIncreases
What happens to REQ when there is a short in a parallel branch (s-p circuit) - correct
answerGoes to 0 ohms (parallel volt drops are 0 volts)
What happens to circuit values when a load is addedto voltage divider? - correct
answerResistance down, voltage down, current up
