Simulate Series & Parallel Circuits

Simulate Series & Parallel Circuits

Understand parallel and series, also many more components in an online simulation tool.

 Demonstrate proficiency in placing components, connecting simulated wires and completing a parallel circuit and a series circuit, using light bulbs or LEDs, also add more components and see what works..

Create a series circuit and a parallel circuit, then add components see how many you can add, and try and make them all work.

Figure stuff out.  If you are stuck, help will be provided, but do your best to resolve your own problems

If you need help 'figuring stuff out' try these challenges or think you are a master at all this electronics simulation stuff and don't need any practice, try these challenges.  Make these things work.
