Circuits Year 10

Define Voltage

• The push around the circuit provdied by the battery
• The flow of electrons around the circuit
• The ability to reduce the flow of charge

Define Current

• The push around the circuit provdied by the battery
• The flow of electrons around the circuit
• The ability to reduce the flow of charge

Define Resistance

• The push around the circuit provdied by the battery
• The flow of electrons around the circuit
• The ability to reduce the flow of charge

What is the rule for Resistance in a series circuit

• Resistance increases as components are added
• Resistance decreases as components are added
• Resistance stays the same as components are added

What is the rule for Resistance in a parallel circuit

• Resistance increases as components are added
• Resistance decreases as components are added
• Resistance stays the same as components are added

What is the rule for Current in a parallel circuit

• Current is shared
• Current is the same

What is the rule for Voltage in a parallel circuit

• Voltage is shared
• Voltage is the same

What is the rule for Current in a series circuit

• Current is shared
• Current is the same

What is the rule for Voltage in a series circuit

• Voltage is shared
• Voltage is the same

What is the unit for current
