Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: ZING! The BEST Parallel and Series Circuit Worksheets - Glitter in

▼

- Current is the "flow" of electricity.
- We measure current with an ammeter, and the units are called "amperes", or "amps" for short.
- We put our ammeter in series with the thing we're measuring.

Series Circuits
- A₁ = [Measured Value] Amps
- A₂ = [Measured Value] Amps
- A₃ = [Measured Value] Amps
- So the current is the same all the way round a series circuit

Parallel Circuits
- A₁ = [Measured Value] Amps
- A₂ = [Measured Value] Amps
- A₃ = [Measured Value] Amps
- A₄ = [Measured Value] Amps
- What do you notice about A₁ and A₄? They are equal.
- What happens if you add A₂ and A₃ together? Their sum equals A₁ (or A₄).
- So the current is shared in a parallel circuit

Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of series parallel circuit worksheets.
