About this episode

This episode discusses the principles of parallel circuits in relation to ohm's law, including the behavior of voltage, current, and resistance.

Series circuits are thoroughly discussed in relation to ohm's law and the values of resistance, voltage, and current. For voltage, it remains the same at each parallel junction. For current, it adds up in parallel circuits. And for resistance, it is a bit more complicated, the total resistance is smaller than the highest resistance in the circuit. Since there are more paths for the current to travel, it will choose to travel through the lower resistances with more current. I also read how power behaves in a parallel circuit. Break out your pencil and calculator and follow along.
