Series Circuit Diagram Labeled. The diagram to the right represents an electric circuit consisting of four resistors and a 12 volt battery. There are two basic ways in which to connect more than two circuit components.
The supply voltage in a series circuit is equal to the sum of the individual voltage drops. Here we have three resistors labeled r 1 r 2 and r 3 connected in a long chain from one terminal of the battery to the other. An electric circuit is commonly described with mere words like a light bulb is connected to a d cell.
An electric circuit is commonly described with mere words like a light bulb is connected to a d cell.
Another means of describing a circuit is to simply draw it. If you follow the circuit diagram from one side of the cell to the other. A series circuit is similar. Another means of describing a circuit is to simply draw it.
