Electricity Review

Front

What is a series circuit?

Back

A circuit that has only one path for electricity to flow.

Front

What is a parallel circuit?

Back

A circuit that has multiple paths for electricity to flow.

Front

What is Ohm's Law?

Back

A fundamental principle stating that Voltage (V) = Current (I) x Resistance (R).

Front

If resistance is constant and voltage increases, what happens to current?

Back

The current increases.

Front

What is the unit of electrical resistance?

Back

Ohm (Ω).

Front

What is the unit of electric current?

Back

Ampere (A).

Front

What is the unit of voltage?

Back

Volt (V).

Front

What is a closed circuit?

Back

A complete electrical circuit through which current can flow.

Front

What is an open circuit?

Back

A circuit that is not complete, preventing current from flowing.

Front

What happens to total resistance in a series circuit?

Back

Total resistance is the sum of all individual resistances.
