What is the unit of current?

• volts (V)

• amps (A)

• ohms (Ω)

• joules (J)

What is the difference in finding total resistance in a series circuit vs. in a Parallel circuit?

• No Difference

• For series use inverse equation, for parallel add resistances up.

• For series add up resistances, for parallel add up resistances

• For series add up resistances, for parallel use inverse equation

When to use the P=I²R formula

• Never

• If the question only gives you current and resistance

• If the question only gives you voltage

• Always
