Compound Circuits
How can voltage, current, and power be used to predict the behavior of electric circuits? In the first part of this investigation, you will predict the brightness of bulbs in a circuit. Bulb brightness is a measure of the dissipation of power. In the second part, you will explore the properties of a commonly used kind of circuit called a voltage divider.
