Here is a collection of worksheets you can use to teach series & parallel circuits in your physics or physical science class.

These worksheets are targeted towards students who need just a little extra help in setting up problems, especially the ones involving parallel circuits.

Included:

Series Circuits

• Find the equivalent resistance for series circuits
• Find the total current in series circuits
• Find the voltage drop across resistors in series circuits

Parallel Circuits

• Find the equivalent resistance for parallel circuits
• Find the total current in parallel circuits
• Find the equivalent resistance, total current, and current across resistors in parallel circuits

General

• Identify and label parts of a circuit
• Series circuits worksheet (word problems)
