Electricity


Model 3b.2

In this model, the power output is calculated separately for two components in a series circuit. It does this by calculating the voltage drop across each of the components and the current through each component, and then finding the power from the formula: 

P = V I

The cells are duplicated so that different vales for the variables can be entered and the results compared.
