10 things I learned from 553 – 563 which I originally thought was 555 – 563 which was cut off... yeah...

Caution: This sign might shock you...

-Resistance is the measure of the opposition to flow in the unit ohms (Ω).

 - By plotting the relationship between the current and the voltage on a graph, finding the slope of the straight line which is constant, it creates the equation R = V/I.

-R = V/I where R is the resistance in volt/ampere, also known as ohm, named after Georg Simon Ohm, V being the potential difference in volts (V) and I is the current in amperes (A).

-Resistance is affected by many factors, such as length, cross-sectional area, the material, and its temperature. Similarly, the resistor is affected by the thickness of the conductor. If the conductor is thinner, then only a limited amount of electrons/coulombs can pass freely, if the conductor is thicker however, then all the electrons coulombs can move freely.

-Series circuits are circuits that consist of the loads connected one after the other in a single path. Unlike the parallel circuits, there is no second path for the electrons in the current to take. Parallel circuits are circuits that consist of the loads place side by side and arranged so that the electrons or current can travel in multiple pathways.

-Kirchhoff’s current law state that the total amount of current into a junction point of a circuit equals the total current that comes out of that same juncture.

-Kirchhoff’s voltage law states that the total of all electrical potential decreases in any complete circuit loop is the same as any potential increases in that loop. In application to series circuit, Kirchhoff’s voltage law states that the total voltage (V_T) is equal to the other voltages combined (V₁ + V₂ + V₃ ...)

Wow.... that looks positively electrifying....

-Kirchhoff’s voltage law in application to parallel circuit is that the total voltage (V_T) is equal to the other voltages (V₁) and (V₂) and (V₃). Which also stretches out to V₁ = V₂ = V₃...

-The formula for the resistance in a series circuit is the total resistance (R_T) is equal to all the other resistances added together (R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + R₄...) so it writes out to R_T = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + R₄...

-The formula for the resistance in a parallel circuit is similar to the formula for the resistance in a series circuit except that 1 is dividing everything. So the formula becomes 1/R_T = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + 1/R₃ + 1/R₄...
