7)When we add a capacitor  there is only one way the currents can flow. This will slow down the flow of charges. ]]> 2017-05-15 15:30:25 UTC https://padlet.com/tec430/gk4drk1mwh9p/wish/171868628 https://padlet.com/tec430/gk4drk1mwh9p/wish/171870727 1. The opposition of the circuit refers to resistance which blocks the circuit.
2 The calculation of resistance is ohms.

7. Capacitors affect the current by directing the flow to only one way;ultimately slowing down the charge flow. ]]> 2017-05-15 15:36:18 UTC https://padlet.com/tec430/gk4drk1mwh9p/wish/171870727 https://padlet.com/tec430/gk4drk1mwh9p/wish/171870728 2017-05-15 15:36:18 UTC https://padlet.com/tec430/gk4drk1mwh9p/wish/171870728 https://padlet.com/tec430/gk4drk1mwh9p/wish/171871245 1) The ratio of voltage to an electric current with flows through it is the resistance in a circuit.

2.) Resistance is measured in Ohms
4.) The Rt = 10K + 5.1K + 1K = 16.1K Ohms
5.) Rt = 1/10K + 1/5.1K  + 1/1K = .0013 Ohms
7.)The capacitor keeps some charge stored and when you take the power source away, it releases the charge that has been stored and keeps the light on a little longer. This causes the light to dim as the charge is depleted. ]]> 2017-05-15 15:40:07 UTC https://padlet.com/tec430/gk4drk1mwh9p/wish/171872147 https://padlet.com/tec430/gk4drk1mwh9p/wish/171873082 1. Resistance is the blockage of current in a circuit.
2. Resistance is measured in Ohms.
4. 10K+1K+5.1K= 16.1 K
5. 10K+1K+5.1K= 16.1 K
7. The light of the diode dissipates slowly because the capacitor holds some of the charge. This allows for the light to disappear slowly.]]> 2017-05-15 15:43:09 UTC https://padlet.com/tec430/gk4drk1mwh9p/wish/171873082 https://padlet.com/tec430/gk4drk1mwh9p/wish/171875072 1.  Resistance is how much current is blocked throughout the circuit.
2.  Resistance is measured in Ohms.
3.BAM!
4. 5.1K +5.1K + 10K = 20.2K Ohms.

2)Ohms
4)Rt=10k + 100k = 110K
