CIRCUITS
Slides in this set (4)
-
- p.d. - is SHARED between the components. p.d. around circuit adds up to p.d. across power supply.
- Current - Has the SAME current through all parts of circuit.
- Resistance - Total resistance of circuit is sum of individual resistances. The bigger the resistance of a component the bigger it’s share.

- Caption: R = R1 + R2 + R3
-

- Caption: V = V1 + V2

- Caption: I1 = I2 = I3
-
- p.d. - Is the SAME across all branches.
- Current - Total current equals sum of all current flowing through spectate branches, Current is SHARED.
- Resistance - Is less than the branch with the SMALLEST resistance.
