Front

What is the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance in a circuit?

Back

Ohm's Law states that V = I * R.

Front

What is the primary difference between series and parallel circuits?

Back

In series circuits, components are connected end-to-end, while in parallel circuits, components are connected across common points.

Front

What happens to the total resistance in a series circuit when more resistors are added?

Back

The total resistance increases.

Front

What is the effect of increasing voltage in a circuit with constant resistance?

Back

The current increases.
