FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is Ohm's Law?

Back

Ohm's Law states that the current (I) flowing through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage (V) across the two points and inversely proportional to the resistance (R) of the conductor. It is expressed as V = I * R.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you calculate the total resistance in a series circuit?

Back

In a series circuit, the total resistance (R_total) is the sum of all individual resistances: R_total = R1 + R2 + R3 + ...
