Current And Voltage In A Series Circuit. Electric circuits can be series or parallel. Voltage is the cause and current is the effect.
When current passes through the resistors in series circuit a voltage is developed across each resistor. The sum of the voltages across components in series is equal to the voltage of the supply. The supply voltage in a series circuit is equal to the sum of the individual voltage drops.
The sum of the voltages across components in series is equal to the voltage of the supply.
The total resistance of any series circuit is equal to the sum of the individual resistances. The sum of the voltages across components in series is equal to the voltage of the supply. Voltage is the cause and current is the effect. The supply voltage in a series circuit is equal to the sum of the individual voltage drops.
