ELEMENTARY ELECTRICITY the resistance to the passage of water from C to D wouldbe halved, and the current gauge would immediately in-dicate twice the former current. The two pipes in paral-lel are really equivalent to one pipe of twice the internalsectional area. The same thing would apply to 3, 4,… … V&sSS^ Fig. 142. Parallel Circuits. It must be understood that there is no increase inthe current flowing through any individual pipe whenothers are connected across. The current in A, Fig.143, for instance, would remain practically constantthroughout providing the pump maintained the…
