Question

10. Describe why almost all the circuitry in your home consists of parallel circuits? What benefits/shortfalls make the parallel circuit a better circuit for use in your home? 11. The remote control for an RC car is supposed to run off two AA batteries (1.5v each), but someone looking at the battery compartment mistakenly thinks that the terminals are for a 9V battery. When the remote control is turned back on, how will the current flowing through it compare to the current it is meant to operate with? What might this do to the components inside the remote control?

Question 7 Why are parallel circuits, rather than series circuits, commonly used in wiring houses? They allow appliances to operate separately. They use fewer wires. They are cheaper. The voltage drop varies with each resistor. They have a higher total resistance.

00:01 Hello to show in this question it is asked that why parallel circuits are used in the wiring of the house rather than the series circuit.
00:06 So the answer for this is the a part that is they allow they allow appliance they allow appliances to operate to operate separately to operate separately and what is the explanation explanation is when appliance are connected when appliances are connected in parallel are connected in parallel okay each of them each of them put on and off put on and off independently it will act as the independently and it will act as the independently and switching on off a device switching on and off a device switching on on and off a device won't affect other appliances...
