Why is voltage split over a series circuit?
Voltage drop due to the resistance present in the series circuit causes voltage split over a series circuit.
Why RC circuit is preferred over RL circuit in waveshaping?
There is no true advantage of RC circuits over RL circuits, as they perform different functions. RC circuits contain resistors and capacitors, while RL circuits contain resistors and inductors.
Why parallel combination is preferred over series combination?
In a parallel circuit (with more than one branch), the current will still flow in the other circuit(s) even if there is a break in one circuit. This is not so with a series circuit, since it does not have branches: if there is a break in the circuit, there is a break in the circuit.
What is the advantage of film resistors over carbon resister?
Film resistors have lower noise than carbon resistors.
What is the advantage of a parallel circuit over a series circuit?
In a parallel circuit the failure of one bulb reduces the light of that one bulb. In a series circuit the failure of any bulb causes all bulbs to stop producing light because the circuit itself fails. A break in a series circuit stops the current flow to the whole circuit. A break in a parallel circuit stops the flow only in that parallel branch, not the whole circuit. This independence from system loss by one failure is a parallel advantage.
