resistance and V=IR Flashcards
1
Q
what is the formula linking potential difference and current
A
potential difference = current x resistance
2
Q
what is the products of an ammeter
A
measured in amps
flows through the test wire
must always be placed in series with whatever you are investigating
3
Q
what are the products of a voltmeter
A
measures the potential difference across the test wire (in volts)
must always be placed in parallel around what you are investigating
