Part 1: Answer the following questions Name AND describe the components needed to make a complete circuit.

Compare and contrast a series and parallel circuit. Give at least one way that they are similar and one way they are different.

Similarity:

Difference:

Ohm’s Law is represented by the equation I = V/R. Explain how the current could change if the amount of resistance decreased and the voltage stayed the same.

Define resistance.

Describe what would happen to the resistance if the voltage increased but the current stayed the same.
