Summary of electric circuits:1. The amount of current is the same at every place in a series circuit; I=q/t.
2. The power provided by the battery (P=IV) is exactly equal to the power dissipated in the resistors (P=I2R).
3. Ohm’s Law applies to resistors: V=IR
4. Series circuit: effective R = R1 + R2 + R3
5. Parallel circuit: effective R is
6. Charge is conserved
7. Current is conserved
8. The voltage drops around a circuit is zero

A. A & C both get brighter.
B. A & C both get dimmer.
C. A is brighter, and C is dimmer.
D. A is dimmer, and C is brighter.

Question 6
For three resistors in parallel, choose the correct statement:
EMF
volts 1 2 3
A. The current and the voltage across all three are the same.
B. The voltage drop and the power dissipated across all three are the same.
C. The energy given up per electron is the same for all three.
D. The current through one resistor is the same as the current through the battery.
By placing all electric items in parallel they receive the same voltage
By placing electrical items in series they receive the same current
A volt meter has a high resistance so take very little current
Fig. 13.13
An Amp meter has very little resistance so take very little voltage
Question 14
If R1=10 ohms, R2=5 ohms and R3=10 ohms what is the total resistance of the circuit?
Energy source => Potential Energy => Kinetic Energy => Heat
Power = Energy/unit timeP=V * IP= (I*R) *I= I2 R
Units of PowerWATTS = Joules/second
Note: Energy = power * timeWe purchase electrical energy by the Kilowatt-hr
If the resistance of the light is 20 ohms what is the power given off by the light?
If the light were to be on for 24 hours how much energy would be used up?
