LEARNING TARGETS
• I can explain and calculate the relationship between current,
voltage, resistance, and power in a simple Circuit.
• I can define common electricity terms such as current, voltage,
resistance, power.
• I can measure current and voltage in a circuit.
• I can apply Ohm's Law to calculate voltage, current or
resistance.
• I can identify circuits as series, parallel, or combination.
• I can calculate total resistance in simple series, simple parallel
and combination (advanced learner) circuits.
• I can calculate percent error from an experimentally obtained
value to a theoretically calculated value.
• I can compare the theoretical value of a voltage or current in a
simple circuit to the actual value obtained with a multimeter.
• Next Quiz / Test: Thursday December 17th
• It will cover: Chapter 16,
• You will need to know: Electricity
– Ohm’s Law [ I = V / R
– Series Circuits:
V=IxR
R=V/I ]
• Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law: VTotal = V1 + V2 + ……
• Rtotal = R1 + R2 + ……
• Current – Same throughout
– Parallel Circuits:
• Kirchhoff’s Current Law: ITotal = I1 + I2 + ……
• Voltage - same in each branch
