OHMS LAW Ohm's law relates the resistance of a component to its voltage and current. Applying circuit rules for current and voltage with Ohm's Law allows us to formulate rules to determine total resistance. Ohms Laws and resistance All CONDUCTORS show some opposition to current (RESISTANCE) (A)0.1A current measured in amperes (A) Potential Difference (V) If you increase the voltage across a component the current will increase. Too high a voltage the lamp will break. 0.4A VA TR (A)0.2A If you increase the number of lamps in a series circuit, there will be less current. Lamps resist current so MORE LAMPS - MORE RESISTANCE A02A -voltage measured in volts (v) current (A) HH (A)0-3A resistance measured in ohms (2) If the resistance is constant it is a straight line. Resistance ↳SERIES CIRCUIT RT =R₁+R₂ + R3 ↳PARALLEL CIRCUT L = +++ RT R₁ R₂ R3 in parallel the total resistance is always smaller than the smallest value resistor *
