Units/Symbols
Amps (A)
Equation for capacitors in parallel?
Ct = C1 + C2 + C3
What happens to current in a series circuit when one bulb burns out?
The circuit will go out, because current can no longer flow.
Units for power?
Watts (W)
Equation for resistors in parallel?
1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3
Is the total current in a series circuit the same throughout the circuit in a series circuit or parallel circuit?
Series
Symbol used to represent current?
I
What is Ohm's Law
V = IR
Are light bulbs brighter when placed in series or parallel?
Parallel, because there is a greater voltage drop on each LED.
What is the greek letter used to represent ohms?
Omega
What is the equation for Capacitors in series?
1/Ct = 1/C + 1/C + 1/C
Do the probes of a multimeter need to be placed in parallel or series to measure current?
Series
Units for Capacitance
Farads (F)
What is the Power equation?
P=IV
Daily Double
Find the total resistance in the combination circuit on the board.
