Ohm's Laws

Students explore the relationship of resistance, voltage and current in series and parallel circuits. Then they discover Ohm's Law by constructing series circuits with one resistor and putting the resultant resistance, current and voltage into a worksheet and apply their law to series circuits with multiple resistors and/or batteries.
