Which types of circuits are harder to power, those having low electrical resistance or those having high electrical resistance?

Which circuit has more electrical resistance, series or parallel? Explain your answer using observations/data from the activity.

Under which conditions will a battery run down faster, when connected to a high-resistance circuit or when connected to a low-resistance circuit?

Which battery would last longer, one connected to a three-bulb series circuit or one connected to a three-bulb parallel circuit? (Assume the batteries are identical and the bulbs are identical.)

I just did a lab and I can't figure out why the voltage behaves this way. Circuit one: A 1.5 volt battery and a voltmeter V= 1.319V Circuit two: Same as circuit one but there is a bulb parallel with the voltmeter and the voltage drops to 1.156V. Shouldn't the voltage be the same because they are in parallel and how can you use theory or otherwise to explain this? Is it due to resistance decreasing because the bulb abd...

Suppose you have a circuit with a 10 volt battery hooked up to a 100 ohm light bulb and a variable resistor of R ohms. The light bulb and the resistor can be hooked up in series or parallel. Draw both these circuits and label them as series or parallel and with the values of each component. Now, solve for the current in the light bulb in each of these circuits for R = 10, 100, and 1000 Ohms. Given...

Please answer.. Overview: When a wire is attached to the positive terminal of a power source, such as a battery, and to the negative terminal of the battery a potential difference is set across that wire and a current is generated through that wire. Depending on how much resistance there is in the wire will affect the amount of current through that wire. Adding more resistance will further affect the amount of current.  In this experiment you will measure both the...

3) In a lab in electrical circuits, your laboratory colleague challenges you by asking you to connect a circuit with the total resistance (replacement resistance) 1 000 ?. One requirement is that you use at least three resistors, each of which is of different size, and that both serial and parallel connection must occur. Describe which resistors you used as well as clearly how to connect these. I'm new to physics, so please explain thoroughly, thank you!

A circuit has a 2.9 V battery connected in series with a switch. When the switch is closed, the battery powers two paths in parallel, one of which has a resistor of resistance R1 = 80 Ω in series with an inductor of inductance L = 1×10−2 H , while the other has a resistor of resistance R2 = 230 Ω . What is the current supplied by the battery at a time t = 0.25 ms after the switch...
