Resistance in a Complex Circuit Ohm’s Law Resistance in a Complex Circuit Activity 1: Setting the Stage If the resistance in a circuit is 12 ohms, and the voltage is 120 volts, what is the current? Show all work using proper form. Current = Voltage ÷ Resistance Current = 120V ÷ 12Ω Current = 10A Are all circuits this simple? Explain your thoughts. one GTE-8B

Resistance in a Complex Circuit Ohm’s Law Resistance in a Complex Circuit Resistance in a Series Circuit The resistance in a series circuit is equal to the sum of the individual resistors in the circuit. Why? Every electron must pass through each resistor. one GTE-8B
