Understanding Ohm's Law and Electrical Circuits

Why do old incandescent light bulbs get hotter than modern LED bulbs?

• They use more electricity.

• They are larger in size.

• They are made of different materials.

• They have higher electrical resistance.

What is the primary role of voltage in an electrical circuit?

• To increase resistance.

• To provide electromotive force.

• To measure the flow of electrons.

• To decrease current.

Who formulated Ohm's Law?

• Albert Einstein

• George Ohm
