What does Ohm's Law state?
Current is independent of voltage.
Resistance is the product of current and voltage.
Voltage is inversely proportional to current and directly proportional to resistance.
Current is directly proportional to voltage and inversely proportional to resistance.
What is the formula for voltage?
Voltage = Current x Resistance
Voltage = Energy / resistance
Voltage = Charge / Energy
Voltage = Resistance / Current
What is a short circuit?
A circuit with no current flow.
A low resistance connection between two conductors.
A high resistance connection between two conductors.
A circuit with infinite resistance.
What does Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL) state?
Voltage drop across a resistor is always zero.
The sum of currents entering a node is equal to the sum of currents leaving the node.
The total voltage in a circuit is zero.
Current is always constant in a circuit.
What is the total resistance in a series circuit?
R_total = R1 + R2 + R3 + ...
R_total = 1/(1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3)
R_total = R1 - R2 - R3
R_total = R1 x R2 x R3

In a parallel circuit, how is the total current calculated?
I_total = I1 x I2 x I3
I_total = 1/(1/I1 + 1/I2 + 1/I3)
I_total = I1 - I2 - I3
I_total = I1 + I2 + I3 + ...
