  1. In a simple series circuit with three resistors, how does the current compare at each resistor?

    Answer: It is the same through all three

    In a series circuit the same current flows through every component.

  2. Using Ohm's law, what current flows when 12 volts is applied across a 4 ohm resistor?

    Answer: 3 amps

    Current equals voltage divided by resistance: 12 / 4 = 3 amps.

  3. What is the total resistance of two 10 ohm resistors connected in parallel?

    Answer: 5 ohms

    Two equal resistors in parallel give half the value, so 10/2 = 5 ohms.

  4. A device that converts electrical energy into rotational mechanical motion is called a:

    Answer: Motor

    An electric motor turns electrical energy into mechanical rotation.

  5. A transformer with more turns on the secondary than the primary coil will:

    Answer: Step up the voltage

    More secondary turns than primary raises (steps up) the output voltage.

  6. What is the primary function of a fuse in a circuit?

    Answer: To break the circuit during overcurrent

    A fuse melts and opens the circuit when current exceeds a safe level.

  7. Power dissipated by a 2 amp current through a 5 ohm resistor is:

    Answer: 20 watts

    Power equals current squared times resistance: 2² × 5 = 20 watts.
