Which has greater resistance, a thick wire or a thin wire of the same length......
Thin wire has more resistance, harder to flow in. This is Ohm's Law
300
Why do electrons, rather than ?protons make up the flow of ?charge in a metal wire?
Proton's are tightly bound in nucleus and can not flow

Your tutor tells you that an Amp and a volt really measure the same thing and the different terms only serve to simplify the same idea...Why should you get a new tutor?
Amps measures current and volts measures electric potential. silly tutor.

A 12 Volt battery is hooked up to two resistors in parallel. R1 has 16 ohms and r2 and 24 ohms. Find the current in the entire circuit..... reminder Itotal = I1+ I2 in parallel
V = I R Rtotal... 9.6 ohms So Current is 1.3 A

Which draws more current, a 40 Watt bulb or a 100 Watt bulb? NOTE = POWER is WATTS and P=V*I
What is the 100 W bulb.... P=v*I so more I is more more P

You have likely been warned to avoid contact with electrical appliances or even electrical outlets when your hands are wet. Such contact is more dangerous when your hands are wet (vs. dry) because wet hands cause ____
the current would thus be increased. Touching an outlet with wet hands increases the risk of charge flowing through you and causing electrical shock or even electrocution.

Three 3-Ω resistors placed in series would provide a resistance that is equivalent to one _____-Ω resistor. c. Three 5-Ω resistors placed in series would provide a resistance that is equivalent to one _____-Ω resistor.
a. Two 3-Ω resistors placed in series would provide a resistance which is equivalent to one 6-Ω resistor. b. Three 3-Ω resistors placed in series would provide a resistance which is equivalent to one 9-Ω resistor. c. Three 5-Ω resistors placed in series would provide a resistance which is equivalent to one 15-Ω resistor.

Why is it better to have thick wires carry large amounts of current?
Less Resistance so they won't OVERHEAT!

Draw a Series circuit with two resistors, 10 ohms and 5 ohms in series. The Current in the 10 ohm resistor is .667amps. Find the Total Voltage in the circuit.
Rtotal is 15 ohms, I total is .667 amps since current is same in series.... V= I*R so V is 10Volts

How much Current will kill you? .001 amps .1amps 1 amps 10amps
For example, 1/10 of an ampere (amp) of electricity going through the body for just 2 seconds is enough to cause death. The amount of internal current a person can withstand and still be able to control the muscles of the arm and hand can be less than 10 milliamperes (milliamps or mA)
