In parallel circuit , current entering into the circuit will be divided intodifferent paths ( resistances) . Amount of current flow depends upon the magnitude of resistance applied in the circuit. Total current after passing through the circuit will be the sum of all current through each resistance.

What is the total opposition of current in an ac circuit?
Resistance
What flows in an ac circuit current or voltage?
electrons
What is the significance of using inductor in ac circuit?
Current filtering
What limits current flow in a AC circuit?
wire size
Difference between capacitive circuit and inductive circuit?
A capacitive circuit will more readily pass an AC current, while an inductive circuit will pass a DC current.
Why should current be reversed in an AC circuit?
The current in any AC circuit reverses every cycle.
How can you identify the branch parallel circuit with the what will have the least amount of current flow?
In a DC circuit, it's the branch with the largest resistance. In an AC circuit, it's the branch with the largest magnitude of impedance.
Can electricity flow through a parallel circuit?
In electronics, a circuit is usually something that will conduct electricity. There are parallel, series and complex circuits. For a tank circuit (parallel inductor and capacitor), there is a frequency of AC where no current will flow provided these components are perfect and, since there is no such thing, even at this frequency (called resonance) some current will flow albeit small.
If an electric current is flowing through a parallel circuit which units tell you about the amount of electrons traveling in the circuit?
It makes no difference whether the circuit is parallel, series or complex. The number of electrons travelling (or oscillating back and forth for AC) is determined by the current (amps). 1 amp = 1 coulomb/second. 1 coulomb = the charge represented by 6.24150962915265 x 1018 electrons. The current in each leg of a parallel circuit has to be worked out separately.
What is a rectifier circuit?
A circuit that will make AC into direct current DC
In a capacitive AC circuit the current is?
leading the voltage.
What is the total opposition of current in an ac circuit?
Resistance
What flows in an ac circuit current or voltage?
electrons
What statement descibes the flow of electic current in an AC circuit?
The flow of electric current in an AC circuit is alternating, it flows one way then the other, with reference to ground.
If an inductor and a switch are connected in parallel through which the current will flow in an AC circuit?
A:The inductor does not allow ac signal to pass through. It blocks ac and passes dc. If the switch is open, then the ac signal wont pass. If the switch is closed, then the ac signal will pass through the switch.AnswerIt is incorrect to say that an inductor 'does not allow' the passage of an alternating current. An a.c. current will pass through an inductor, although the inductor will limit the value of that current due to the inductor's inductive reactance. Inductive reactance, which is expressed in ohms, is directly-proportional to the inductance of the inductor and to the frequency of the supply. The value of the current is determined by dividing the supply voltage by the inductive reactance of the inductor.If the switch is connected in parallel with the inductor, then closing the switch will apply a direct short circuit across the inductor, and the resulting short-circuit current will cause the circuit's protective device (fuse or circuit breaker) to operate.
The opposition to the flow of electrical current?
In a DC circuit . . . resistance. In an AC circuit . . . impedance.
In an ac circuit?
current flows back and forth APEX
