Name one piece of information that you can get from this circuit.
4
Single Pathway
In a series circuit there is only one path, positive to negative, so the total current of the system is the current everywhere. We will explore what this means at individual points next week.
What would happen if a piece of the circuit stops working?
5
Equivalent Resistance
Equivalent Resistance (Req) is the total resistance of a circuit.
In a series circuit, you find the equivalent resistance by adding all the resistors.
What is the equivalent resistance of this system?
6
Finding missing variable.
Req = 9 ohms
What other information can you get from the diagram?
V = 9V
I = I
How can we find the current?
