Measurement and analysis of current and voltage in simple circuits allows us to formulate rules and predict unknown values.

The voltage across components in parallel is the same for each component.
Look at the parallel circuit below
What is the reading at:
1) Position 1: \(0 V\), \(3 V\) or \(6 V\)
2) Position 2: \(0 V\), \(3 V\) or \(6 V\)
3) Position 3: \(0 V\), \(3 V\) or \(6 V\)
Position 1 = \(6 V\)
Position 2 = \(6 V\)
Position 3 = \(6 V\)
