Midterm Exam

This document contains a midterm examination on circuit theory with two main sections. The first section contains 15 multiple choice questions testing fundamental circuit concepts like current, atoms, voltage units, and circuit models. The second section contains 6 circuit analysis problems. The first problem asks students to calculate current drawn by a flashlight circuit. The remaining problems involve using Kirchhoff's laws, calculating unknown resistances, finding potential differences across resistors, and calculating equivalent resistances for resistors in parallel and series. Diagrams are included with each problem and students are asked to show their work.
