We have already discussed two terms VOLTAGE and CURRENT. Now it is time to discuss them further. VOLTAGE is the term used to describe the electrical “pressure” or difference of potential that we spoke of earlier. Just as water pressure is the force in...

Whenever we work with circuits in the real world, they are seldom as straightforward as a simple series or parallel circuit. Normally, they are a combination of the two, called a SERIES-PARALLEL circuit. While they look forbidding at first, you must keep in mind that...

Ohm’s Law teaches us that Voltage is equal to the product of resistance and current. This is fine if we have a circuit as simple as a single light run by a battery. But how often do we truly encounter a circuit which has only one resistance? It is actually quite...

As we mentioned earlier, there were 2 types of circuits, SERIES and PARALLEL. We have already gone thru Series. Now we are going to discuss the difference between a Series and a PARALLEL circuit. In the series circuit, all the electricity followed the same path. In...
