When we talk about electricity, we often hear about voltage, current, and resistance. These three things are connected by a simple rule called Ohm's Law. This law says that voltage (V) equals current (I) times resistance (R).

So, here's how it works:

• Voltage (V) is like the push that makes electricity move.
• Current (I) is the flow of electricity.
• Resistance (R) is like the obstacles that slow down the flow.

There are two main types of circuits: series circuits and parallel circuits.

In a Series Circuit:

• All the resistors are connected one after the other, like a line of people waiting to get into a concert.
• The total resistance gets bigger because you are adding all the resistors together.
• The formula is:
  • Total Resistance (R_total) = R_1 + R_2 + R_3 + ...

In a Parallel Circuit:

• Here, the resistors are connected on separate paths, like multiple doors to a hallway.
• The total resistance goes down because the resistors share the electricity flow.
• The formula is:
  • 1 / Total Resistance (R_total) = 1 / R_1 + 1 / R_2 + ...

Understanding how voltage, current, and resistance work together is super important if you want to learn about how circuits operate!
