Combined Series and Parallel Circuits



Title Combined Series and Parallel Circuits
Description This inquiry lab is to be completed after initial series and parallel circuits concepts are first taught. Combining series and parallel concepts into one circuit is the next step. Ideally the students would attempt to solve the circuits first before constructing them virtually. However, the simulator will provide a visual aid for the students to better understand how and why the current ends up splitting at each junction.
