Ohm's law describes the relationship Formula

between voltage, resistance and current.
Ohm's law states that the current through
a conductor between two points is directly
proportional to the voltage across the two
points.

Example:
If the resistance of an electrical iron is 50Ω and a current of 3.2 A flows
through the resistance. What is the voltage?
V = 3.2×50
= 160V

1st Rule- According to Kirchoff, the total

current entering a junction or a wide Formula
is equal to the charge leaving a node as
no charge is lost. ∑Iin=∑Iout

Example:
Currents I1 and I2 are flowing into the node and currents I3 and I4 are
flowing out of the node. If I1 and I2 sums up to 8A, and I3 has a value of 5A
what is the value of I4
I1 + I2 = I3 + I4
8A = 5A + I4
I4 = 3A

What is a Series Circuit

Series circuit is an electrical circuit
where the circuit’s components are all
connected end-to-end to form a single
path for current flow

What is a Parallel Circuit?

Parallel circuit is an electrical circuit
with an electrical path that branches so
that the current divides and only part of
it flows through any branch.
