Q: What happens to the total current in a parallel circuit if one of the branches is disconnected?
Solution:
If one branch is disconnected, the total current decreases because there is less path for the current to flow.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that a parallel circuit has multiple branches where current can flow.
Step 2: Know that each branch allows electricity to flow independently.
Step 3: If one branch is disconnected, that path for current is removed.
Step 4: With one less path, the total amount of current that can flow through the circuit decreases.
Step 5: Therefore, the total current in the circuit is lower than it was before the branch was disconnected.
