Lesson 4 - Series circuts Flashcards
1
Q
What is a series circut
A
When componets are hooked up to each other along a single loop a circuit, they are in a series.
2
Q
Do componets in a series have the same current flow through them
A
yes
3
Q
How do you work out the total resistance in a series circut
A
Add the sum of all the components together
4
Q
What is voltage
A
Voltage is the energy per unit charge
5
Q
Will voltage be evenly divided amongst the componets
A
yes it will (in series circuts)
6
Q
The amount of voltage each component receives depends on the resistance of that specific component true or false
A
true
7
Q
How to work out the current using ohms law
A
I = VR
8
Q
What increases when you add components
A
Current will increase
9
Q
what will be more spread out when you add more components
A
Voltage - meaning they recieve less power
