Circuit Analysis

Front

What is current measured in?

Back

Current is measured in Amps (A).

Front

How many light bulbs would be ON if the wire of this circuit was cut?

Back

0 light bulbs would be ON.

Front

In a closed circuit, how does battery voltage affect current?

Back

As voltage increases, current increases.

Front

What type of circuit is shown in the picture?

Back

Parallel Circuit.

Front

Does this diagram represent a series or parallel circuit?

Back

Series Circuit.

Front

What is a circuit?

Back

A circuit is a closed loop that allows current to flow.

Front

What is the difference between series and parallel circuits?

Back

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

Front

What is Ohm's Law?

Back

Ohm's Law states that V = I × R, where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance.

Front

What happens to the total resistance in a series circuit?

Back

The total resistance increases as more resistors are added.

Front

What happens to the total resistance in a parallel circuit?

Back

The total resistance decreases as more resistors are added.
