    Assign current variables and directions

    Use Ohms law to assign voltages and polarities consistent with

    passive devices (current enters at the + side)

    Kirchoffs Current Law (KCL)

    The algebraic sum of currents entering a node

    is zero

    Add each branch current entering the node and

    subtract each branch current leaving the node

    currents in - currents out = 0

    Or currents in = currents out

    Series Circuit

    Series circuit - has only one path through

    which the electricity can flow.

    In the above diagram, the electricity flows

    through both loads.

    Current and Resistance in Series Circuits

    For the series circuit the same current flows throughboth loads.

    The loads can be added together to calculate the

    total load. Rtot = R1 + R2, where Rtot is the total resistance, R1is the resistance of one load, and R2 is the resistanceof the other.

    The total load (resistance) in a series circuit with nloads is the sum of the resistance of the n objects.Rtot = R1 + R2 + + Rn.

    Total Voltage in a Series Circuit

    Ohms Law can be used to calculate the total

    voltage in a series circuit by calculating the

    sum of the voltage parts.

    V = V1 + V2, where V is the total voltage

    (battery voltage), V1 is the voltage at the first

    load, and V2 is the voltage at the other load.

    Parallel Circuits

    A parallel circuithas multiple paths through

    which the electricity can flow.

    In a parallel circuit, the current though one

    path may be different than the current

    through the other path.

    Resistance in Parallel Circuits

    Using Ohms Law you can derive a formula forthe equivalent resistance of two resistors inparallel.

    I1 = V/R1 I2 = V/R2

    I = I1 + I2 = V/R1 + V/R2

    = (VR2 + VR1)/R1R2 = V(R2+R1)/R1R2 Rtot = V/(V(R2+R1)/ R1R2 = R1R2/(R1+R2)
