What you’ll learn:
• What voltage, current, and resistance are and how to visualize them
• The main Ohm’s Law formula (E = I × R) and how to solve for any variable
• Real-world circuit examples and calculations
• A demonstration using a water pump to show how current, voltage, and resistance interact
• An introduction to power (watts) and how Watt’s Law relates
By the end, you’ll have a solid foundation for upcoming lessons on series, parallel, and combination circuits.
