Series circuits
only have a
single
loop.
Parallel circuits have more than one loop.
In a series circuit, the potential difference of the battery is..
Shared
across all of the components.
In a series circuit the current is..
The same
everywhere
in the circuit.
In a
series circuit
, the
total resistance
is equal to the sum of the
individual resistances
of each component.
Ohms Law..
V
=
IR
In a
series circuit
, components with a greater
resistance
will always have a greater share of the
voltage
.
