Homework

Circuit with one resistor

* Make a circuit with one battery and a resistor. Note the voltage of the battery and the resistance of the resistor.
 * What is the voltage across the resistor

 * What is the current through the resistor
 * What happens to the current and voltage if you double the resistor value
 * What happens to the current and voltage if you half the resistor value

Circuit with two series resistors

* Make a circuit with one battery and two resistors in series. Note the voltage of the battery and the resistances of the resistors.
 * What is the voltage across each resistor
 * What is the current through each resistor
 * What happens to the current and voltage if you double the resistor value of one resistor
 * What happens to the current and voltage if you half the resistor value of one resistor

Circuit with three or more series resistors

* Do the same for three or more resistors in series

Circuit with two parallel resistors

* Make a circuit with one battery and two resistors in parallel. Note the voltage of the battery and the resistances of the resistors.
 * What is the voltage across each resistor
 * What is the current through each resistor
 * What happens to the current and voltage if you double the resistor value of one resistor
 * What happens to the current and voltage if you half the resistor value of one resistor

Circuit with three or more parallel resistors

* Do the same for three or more resistors in parallel
