left and in the middle and the switch is at the top on the right.

Step 3

Look at this circuit diagram and complete the description V A
The battery ........ in the ........ of the ........ at the ........ and a ...it.
The ....... is in ....... .on ...... right. The lamp is on ........ towards …..
switch ........ .

Language Point
Resistance (R) is measured in ohms (W)
Current (I) is measured in amps (A)
Voltage (V) is measured in volts (V)
This formula is used to calculate the resistance in a circuit.
V=I·R (V equals I times R).

Fill in the gaps:

V - voltage measured in volts, V
I -
R -
Look at this circuit diagram:
is the symbol for a resistor. A resistor is made of
R
a material, which resists the flow of electricity. Some resistors are
made of nichrome.
? To calculate the voltage, V:
V
V=I·R=5·2=10
V=10 volts

Read out the calculations in full, for example, voltage equals
current times resistance, which is five times two… .
