currents by their many turns. Theirresistance, though perhaps large, is not a serious additionto the existing resistances of the circuit. 404. Divided Circuits and Shunts.—The caseof several wires forming a multiple arc often occurs inpractice. In such cases, the cztrrent flowing iJt eachbranch is… … {a.) A current flowing along a conductor divides at A, part goin^through a galvanometer or electro-maenet at G and the rest goingthrough the branch, B. The currents unite at G. If the conductor,AGC, has a resistance of 99 ohms and the conductor, ABC, has a 278 VOLTAIC ELECTRICITY. resistance of 1…
