What is the term for the relationship of voltage current and resistance in simple electrical circuit?

Ohms Law


What is the definition of impedance in physics and how does it relate to the flow of current in an electrical circuit?

Impedance in physics refers to the measure of opposition to the flow of alternating current in an electrical circuit. It includes both resistance and reactance. In simple terms, impedance determines how much a circuit resists the flow of current, affecting the overall behavior of the circuit.


Circuit in a sentence?

A circuit is a closed loop through which an electric current can flow, typically comprising a source of electrical energy, conductors, and components such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors.


Why does not it matter where you measure the current in a simple circuit?

The current measured at any point in a simple circuit will be the same because current is the measure of electron flow through a circuit. The current flowing through any branch of any circuit (or an entire simple circuit) will always be the same at any point.


What is happening when you turn an electric circuit off?

When you switch off an electrical circuit you tend to create a 'break' in the circuit, preventing the electric current to flow around the circuit, this can be caused by a simple switch or a break in the circuit, e.g a disconnected wire.


What happens to current in a simple circuit as potential difference is increased?

depends on the simple circuit. please describe it.


What does a switch do to effect a series circuit?

In a series circuit, a switch can open or close the circuit path. When the switch is closed, it allows current to flow through the entire circuit. When the switch is open, it interrupts the flow of current, turning off the circuit.


What are two things required to make electric current flow in a circuit?

you need an electrical supply and a load. nice and simple.


An electrical device that provides a path for electrical current to flow?

Well, it is light-thermal energy. Simple as that.AnswerI think that you are looking for 'series circuit', but your question is rather vague.


What is the electricity from a simple generator?

Electricity from a simple generator is produced through the principle of electromagnetic induction. When a conductor, such as a wire coil, moves through a magnetic field, it generates an electric current. This current can then be harnessed to power electrical devices.
