Topics
- Ohm's Law
- Circuits
- Current
- Resistance
- Voltage
Description
See how the equation form of Ohm's law relates to a simple circuit. Adjust the voltage and resistance, and see the current change according to Ohm's law.
Sample Learning Goals
- Predict how current will change when resistance of the circuit is fixed and voltage is varied.
- Predict how current will change when voltage of the circuit is fixed and resistance is varied.
