Simple Series Circuit. The amount of current is the same through any component in a series circuit. In this simple series circuit a 9 volt battery provides 3 volts across each lamp.
Once students know how to create a simple circuit i like to point out that most of the lights we use in buildings have multiple bulbs. In this simple series circuit a 9 volt battery provides 3 volts across each lamp. The amount of current is the same through any component in a series circuit.
On this page we ll outline the three principles you should understand regarding series circuits.
In a series circuit if a lamp breaks or a component is disconnected the circuit is broken and all the components stop working. In this simple series circuit a 9 volt battery provides 3 volts across each lamp. The total resistance of any series circuit is equal to the sum of the individual resistances. Some old christmas lights are connected in series.
