FOCUS QUESTION

How do voltage, current and resistance work together in a circuit?

The map breaks this topic into its core concepts, connected by labeled relationships. Each link is written so it can be read as a complete statement — not just an unlabeled line between boxes.

Concepts and relationships

  • Electric Circuit powered by Battery.
  • Battery provides Voltage.
  • Voltage drives Current.
  • Resistance opposes Current.
  • Electric Circuit connected by Conductor.
  • Ohm's Law describes Current.

How to read this map

Follow from the battery providing voltage, which drives current, while resistance opposes it — as Ohm’s law describes.

Learning objectives

  • Identify the parts of a circuit.
  • Relate voltage, current and resistance.
