Question

1. a shorted component in an rl parallel circuit________.a measures 0 volts across itb causes minimum currentc causes current to decreased measures the applied voltage across it

Explanation:

In an RL parallel circuit, when a component is shorted, its resistance becomes \(0\). According to Ohm's law \(V = IR\), if \(R = 0\), then \(V=0\) (voltage across the shorted component). A shorted component causes a very high (not minimum or decreasing) current (since \(I=\frac{V}{R}\) and \(R\to0\), \(I\to\infty\) in an ideal case). And it does not measure the applied voltage (as \(V = 0\) across it), but a normal (non - shorted) component in parallel would measure the applied voltage.

Answer:

A. measures 0 volts across it
