AC Circuits
Dr. M. Hebaishy
When the applied voltage changes polarity, the current also changes. They are
said to be in phase.
resistive circuit?
4. What is the voltage (rms) of a circuit with 250 mA flowing through 100 ?
voltage of 12 V?
The voltage in a parallel circuit remains constant across each individual branch.
The total current divides among the individual branches. In a parallel AC circuit,
the total current is in phase with the applied voltage
The individual currents are also in phase with the applied voltage.
capacitor.
Using Ohm’s law, the current is directly proportional to the applied voltage and
law.
