What is true about the current through a series circuit?
Current is added up across the light bulbs
The same current flows through all three light bulbs.
Current is the same voltage as the battery
The electrical current is divided between the three light bulbs.
A closed electrical circuit in which the current is divided into two or more paths and then returns via a common path to complete the circuit.
Series
Parallel
Open
Dihexihedral
"The total current in a parallel circuit equals the sum of the individual branch currents."
Ohm's Law
Kirchhoff's Voltage Law
Kirchhoff's Current Law
Bolen's Law
"The sum of all voltage drops in a series circuit equals the total applied voltage." This is know as what?
Ohm's Law
Kirchhoff's Voltage Law
Kirchhoff's Current Law
Bolen's Law
How to you calculate the total resistance in a series circuit?
R1 + R2+ R3
R1 - R2 - R3
1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3
R1 = R2 = R3
How do you calculate total resistance in a parallel circuit?
R1 + R2 + R3
R1 - R2 - R3
1/R1 +1/R2 + 1/R3 = 1/RT
R1 = R2 = R3
