Aim: How can we explain parallel circuits? Do Now: A series circuit has 3 resistors, 20 Ω, 40 Ω, and 60 Ω. What is the total resistance? R T = R 1 + R 2 + R 3 R T = 20 Ω + 40 Ω + 60 Ω R T = 120 Ω R T in series is always larger than the largest resistor!

Parallel Circuits A circuit with 2 or more current loops

Draw 2 resistors and a battery in a parallel circuit

Or…

Light Bulb Demo If one goes out, the others remain lit

In a parallel circuit… Voltage is constant Total current is the sum of the currents through each resistor

And resistance… Straw Demo R T in parallel is always smaller than the smallest resistor!
