Series Circuits- Calculating Current (4min)

In a SERIES CIRCUIT the current that goes out of the battery is the same current that goes through each resistor.

• a larger current that goes through each resistor.

• the same current that goes through each resistor.

• a smaller current that goes through each resistor.

In a series circuit, the current varies (is different) in each resistor.

• True

• False

What does I stand for?

• current

• inductance

• resistance

What is the total resistance of the circuit?

• 5 Ohms

• 9 Ohms

• 7 Ohms

• 21 Ohms

The total current will be...

• 1.75A

• 0.57A
