H. Making Ohm's law states that the
generalizations and current through a conductor
abstractions about between two points is directly
the lesson proportional to the voltage
across the two points.
Introducing the constant of
proportionality, the resistance,
one arrives at the usual
mathematical equation that
describes this relationship:
where I is the current through
the conductor in units of
amperes. The rate of the flow of
electricity is the current. The
ammeter is the instrument used
to measure current. V is the
voltage measured across the
conductor in units of volts. The
instrument that directly
measure this is the voltmeter,
and R is the resistance to the
flow of electrons in the
conductor, is expressed in
ohms Ω. Using an ohmmeter is
one way of directly measuring
electrical resistance.
Components of an
electrical circuit or electronic
circuit can be connected in many
different ways. The two simplest
of these are called series and
parallel and occur frequently.
Components connected in series
are connected along a single
path, so the same current flows
through all of the components.
Components connected in
parallel are connected so the
same voltage is applied to each
component.
A series circuit is a circuit
in which resistors are arranged
in a chain, so the current has
only one path to take. The
current is the same through each
resistor. The total resistance of
the circuit is found by simply
adding up the resistance values
of the individual resistors
A parallel circuit is a
circuit in which the resistors are
arranged with their heads
connected together, and their
tails connected together. The

each resistor in parallel is the

In a simple electric circuit,

voltage is defined as the work
done per unit charge.
V = W/q

Current is also defined as the

amount of charge passing
through a point per unit time.
I = q/t

Multiplying V and I, we get

VI = W/q . q/t =
W/t =P
Therefore:
P = VI

In a simple electric
circuit, electric power is the
product of current and voltage.
Hence:
