Unless otherwise specified, any value given for current or voltage in an AC circuit assumed to be

  • maximum value
  • effective value (correct)
  • instantaneous value
  • value

A circuit has an applied voltage of 24 volts and a load consisting of a 10-ohm resistor in series with a 30 ohm resistor. what is the voltage drop across the 10-ohm resistor

  • 6 volts (correct)
  • 8 volts
  • 24 volts
  • 12 volts

which is correct in reference to electrical resistance

  • An electrical device that has a high resistance will use more power than one with a low resistance
  • Two electrical device will have the same combines resistance if they are connected in series as they will have if they are connected in parallels
  • If one of three bulbs in a parallels lighting circuit is removed, the total resistance of the circuit will become greater (correct)
