We're asked here about some characteristics of series and parallel circuits.
00:06
So i've gone ahead and written those on the right with series circuits being one where there's only a single path available.
00:14
There is the same current everywhere within the circuit.
00:18
The voltage is split among the different resistors in the circuit.
00:25
And to find the total resistance, you just add the resistance of the individual resistance.
00:30
Stirs in the circuit.
00:32
For parallel circuits, there are multiple possible paths through the circuit.
00:37
The current is split up amongst those paths, but the voltage on across any given path will be the same, and we can add and find the equivalent resistance of the circuit using the equation that i've written down there.
00:51
I apologize that statement 5 got cut off a little bit here, it looks like, but we can go through these different options and see which of those are correct.
01:03
So for one in a series circuit, the source volume voltage is the sum of the individual.
01:09
Yes, that's what i mean when i say that the voltage is split.
01:12
And so that's a check mark.
01:15
And the current is the same.
01:16
The current is the same everywhere in a series circuit.
01:19
So it seems like one is the correct answer here, but we can look at the other ones just to make sure.
01:25
For two, a parallel circuit is one where the voltage is the same.
01:29
That is true and the current is the same.
01:32
That is not true.
01:34
So x, check, but this is not a totally true statement.
01:40
Number three, for a parallel circuit, the source voltage is the sum of the individual voltages.
01:45
That's not true...
