Title: Construct series circuits.
Course: Electronics/Industrial Robotics Technology (17101-I) > Section: Working with DC Circuits

Construction should include

- defining the characteristics of a series circuit
- calculating current, voltage, resistance, and power in a series circuit, using Ohm's law, Watt's law, and Kirchoff's law
- measuring resistance, voltage, and current in a series circuit
- identifying series circuits at home and in industry
- designing a series circuit for a practical application
- troubleshooting series circuits.

Process/Skill Questions:

- What is the relationship of resistors to total resistance in a series circuit?
- What characterizes a series circuit?
- What is the simplest series circuit used in the home?
