Why does electric bulb become dim when electric heater in parallel circuit is switched on?

The electric heater draws some of the electrical current in the circuit, which reduces the current available for the electric bulb. This leads to a decrease in the brightness of the bulb as it is receiving less power.


An electric appliance draws 1.5 amperes of current when it is connected to a 24-volt source - What is the resistance of this appliance?

The resistance of the appliance can be calculated using Ohm's Law: Resistance (R) = Voltage (V) / Current (I). In this case, R = 24V / 1.5A = 16 ohms.


A red resistor draws more current than a blue resistor when they are connected to the same battery which resistor has the lower resistance?

The voltage of a battery goes as the current times the resistance (V=IR). Because the voltage is being held constant, the resistor that draws the most current will have the lower resistance.

Why is the above example a load or an energy source?

The above example is considered a load because it consumes energy from the source it is connected to. It draws power from the source to operate or perform its function. In contrast, an energy source is a provider of energy that can supply power to a load.
