Electric potential difference (voltage)
Power consumption in a device
Resistance in a conductor
Current flow in a circuit
What does an ammeter measure?

What is the relationship between current and voltage in a circuit?
Voltage is inversely proportional to current in a circuit.
Voltage is directly proportional to current in a circuit, according to Ohm's Law.
Voltage has no effect on current in a circuit.
Current is independent of voltage in a circuit.
What is the formula for calculating electrical power?
P = V × I
P = V - I
P = I / V
P = V + I
What happens to current in a series circuit?
The current is zero in a series circuit.
The current varies at different points in a series circuit.
The current is the same at all points in a series circuit.
The current is higher at the beginning of the circuit.
What happens to voltage in a parallel circuit?
The voltage is divided among the components in a parallel circuit.
The voltage remains constant across all components in a parallel circuit.
The voltage increases across each component in a parallel circuit.
The voltage fluctuates randomly in a parallel circuit.
What is Ohm's Law?
Ohm's Law states that R = V / I.
Ohm's Law is I = V + R.
Ohm's Law defines power as P = I / R.
Ohm's Law is V = I * R.
What is the effect of resistance on current flow?
Resistance decreases current flow.
Resistance has no effect on current flow.
Resistance increases current flow.
Resistance only affects voltage, not current.
What is a closed circuit?
A closed circuit only works with batteries.
A closed circuit is the same as an open circuit.
A closed circuit allows current to flow continuously.
A closed circuit prevents current from flowing.
What is an open circuit?
A circuit that has a short circuit causing excess current.
A circuit that is complete but has no power source.
A closed circuit that allows current to flow freely.
An open circuit is a circuit that is not complete, preventing current from flowing.
What is the role of a battery in a circuit?
To regulate the flow of current in the circuit.
The role of a battery in a circuit is to supply electrical energy.
To store electrical energy for later use.
To convert electrical energy into mechanical energy.
What is the difference between AC and DC current?
AC is a type of battery current
AC reverses direction periodically; DC flows in one direction.
DC is used in household appliances
AC is safer than DC
What is a short circuit?
A short circuit is an unintended path for electrical current that can cause excessive flow and potential damage.
A short circuit is a type of electrical connector.
A short circuit is a device that regulates voltage.
A short circuit is a method of energy storage.
