| A | B |
|---|
| current in a series circuit | same value (in A) in all positions |
| a voltmeter | should be placed in parallel to component |
| a diode | allows current to flow in 1 direction |
| voltage / current = | resistance (in ohms) of component |
| adding an additional battery | increases current & voltage |
| voltage is also know as... | potential difference |
| in series circuit, adding another bulb | makes all bulbs dimmer |
| in a parallel circuit,break in 1 branch | does not stop current in other branch |
| a variable resistance can act as a... | dimmer switch |
| voltage = | current x resistance |
| an ammeter | should be placed in series |
| Current in measured in | Amps |
