Reoccurring Processes Knowledge & Problem Solving /2 /29 Name: ________________________ Grade 12 Physics – Electric Circuits Test For the following questions, show your work and round to the appropriate number of significant figures. Multiple Choice: Choose the best answer. (1 mark each) 1. Which of the following statements about this circuit is TRUE? Current A1 R2 R1 A3 A2 A. B. C. D. The reading of A1 is greater than A2 A lower current flows through A3 than comes out of the battery The reading on A2 is about the same as the reading on A3 R2 slows the electrons down so the reading on A3 must be less than that on A2 2. The diagram below represents part of an electric circuit containing three resistors. What is the equivalent resistance of this part of the circuit? A. 0.67 Ω B. 6.3 Ω C. 19 Ω D. 1.5 Ω 3. A girl has 3 equal resistors each of value 6 . She has found that by connecting all of them in series and parallel combinations she can produce several different values of their total resistance. The only values possible are: A. 18 , 12 , 6 , 3 , B. 18 , 9 , 4 , 2 C. 18 , 9 , 6 , 3 D. 18 , 4 , 2 , 1 4. As the number of resistors in a parallel circuit is increased, what happens to the equivalent resistance of the circuit and total current in the circuit? A.
