How many Volts would it take to push 1 Amp through a resistance of 1 Ohm

• 10 volts

• 1 volt

• 48 volts

• 5 volts

How do you calculate voltage?

• Current X Resistance

• Resistance ÷ Current

• Current ÷ Resistance

• Measure it with a ruler

A resistor

• Is the same as resistance

• Is connected to a circuit in parallel

• Is used in a circuit to control the amount of current

• Is not measured in ohms

The circuit shown contains a battery, a 6.0 Ω resistor and two meters X and Y.

One meter records current and one meter records potential difference.

• meter X : 2.0 A

  meter Y : 12.0 V

• meter X : 2.0 V

  meter Y : 1.0 A

• meter X : 12.0 A

  meter Y : 2.0 V

• meter X : 12.0 V

  meter Y : 2.0 A
