Series and Parallel Circuit Series and parallel circuits are two fundamental configurations in electrical circuits, each with distinct characteristics that affect how electricity flows through them.

In a parallel circuit, different components are connected on different branches of the wire. If you follow the circuit diagram from one side of the cell to the other, you can only pass through all the ...

In a television series, you get several episodes, one after the other. A series circuit is similar. You get several components one after the other. If you follow the circuit diagram from one side of ...

We use a V.I.R. chart to help us solve series, parallel, and complex circuits problems. In this Closer Look segment on circuits, we use a V.I.R. chart to help us solve series, parallel, and complex ...
