Resistors

This is a teacher or student controlled, realistic 3d simulation of an experiment that allows you to investigate the combined resistance of resistors in series and parallel.  Resistors impede the flow of current in a circuit.  We use them in electrical and electronic circuits to control the flow of current.  The higher the resistance the less current that flows.  However, there are two different ways we can connect resistors together, either in series or in parallel.  This experiment will allow you to investigate the combined resistance of resistors connected both ways.  

The user can control picking any resistor and placing it on any free slot on the breadboard.  The user can position him/herself anywhere within the laboratory in order to take readings of the voltage and current.
