Potential difference (voltage) and current are fundamental measurements for electric circuits. Multiply the potential difference across a device by the current flowing through it to get the power rating for that device.Multiply the power rating by the time for which the device is used to get the energy that the device has transferred. All of … Continue reading Ohm’s Law
Online Circuit Simulators
One of the best ways to learn about circuits and resistance is by building circuits - either in the classroom or using an online simulation. I've previously recommended PhET DC Circuit simulation, which (despite some non-standard circuit symbols) is still a great way to take measurements that demonstrate concepts such as Ohm's Law. You can … Continue reading Online Circuit Simulators
