DelMars Electricity Unit 6 Series Circuits
Below Ground Voltage - correct answer ✔Negative with respect to ground.
Above Ground Voltage - correct answer ✔Positive with respect to ground.
What circuits use ground as a common reference point to produce voltages
above and below ground? - correct answer ✔Voltage divider circuits
Describe a chassis ground? - correct answer ✔A common pint used as a
common connection in other parts of the circuit. It is not directly connected to
ground , but insulated from ground.
Describe an earth ground/ground point? - correct answer ✔An object
physically driven into the ground.
What is voltage polarity? - correct answer ✔The direction of voltage in
regards to the directions of current within a given circuit.
What is a voltage divider used for? - correct answer ✔Provides different
voltages between certain points.
What does the voltage divider formula state? - correct answer ✔The voltage
across any particular resistance is equal to the total circuit current times the
value of the resistor.
What are the three rules of series circuits? - correct answer ✔1. Current is
the same at any point.
2. Total resistance is the sum of the individual resistors.
