Voltage- ✅The amount of electromagnetic force (emf) available to move a
current.
✅The progressive movement of electrons through a conductor.
Current (I)-
Resistance (R)-✅In an electrical circuit, the opposition to electron
movement or current flow. Its value is affected by many factors, including
the dimensions and material of the conductors, the physical makeup and
types of the components in the circuit, and temperature.
✅
Series Circuits- A circuit in which components are connected in tandem
or in a string providing only one path for current flow.
✅
Parallel Circuits- A circuit with two or more paths for current flow where
all components are connected between the same voltage points.
✅
Series-Parallel Circuits- A circuit comprised of a combination of both
series-connected and parallel connector components and/or subcircuits.
✅
Ohm's Law- A mathematical statement describing the relationship among
current, voltage, and resistance in electrical circuits.
✅
Closed Circuit- A complete, unbroken path through which electrical
current flows whenever voltage is applied to that circuit.
✅
Open Circuit- Has a break in the path of current flow. This break may be
a desired (designed) break or an undesired (unplanned) break.
