Voltage is an electrical force or pressure that causes current to flow in a circuit. It is an additive in a series circuit.

∙ 14y agoNo, due to resistance in the line (circuit) you will end up with a voltage "drop" or loss.This goes for series and parallel circuits.

What is true about the sum of the voltages across the components in a circuit compared to the voltage of the cell?
voltage is devided only in series circuit and is the same at the parallel circuit
What is the formula for total current in a series circuit?
Current = (Voltage across the circuit) divided by (Total resistance of the circuit). The current is the same at every point in the series circuit.
When two cells with the same voltage are connected in a series circuit what happens to the voltage?
There is addition of voltage. Dry cells have 1.5 volts irrespective of there size. if the cells are added as same polarity in series it will add if are parallel then voltage remains same
If two resistors have same voltage drop in a series circuit it means?
It means the two resistors have same resistance
Three electric cells each have a voltage of 1.3Vwhat is the total voltage of the three cells if the cells are connected in parallel?
voltage is still 1.3V in parallel circuit, voltage stays the same but current adds up in series circuit, voltage adds up but current stays the same
Do parts of a series circuit have the same amount of volts?
No. Parts of a series circuit have the same amount of current, but not necessarily the same amount of voltage.
What is the difference between parelllel and series circuit?
A parallel circuit has the same voltage but different current in each leg and series circuit has the same current but different voltage on each components unless the same value.
In series circuit why current drop beceause according to kichroff law cuurent remain same in series circuit?
In a series circuit current does stay the same thoughout the circuit, voltage drops in the series circuit.
Is the current the same everywhere in the parallel circuit?
No. The current in a series circuit is the same everywhere. The voltage across a parallel circuit is the same.
What happens to the voltage if batteries if they are setup in a parallel and a series circuit?
Assuming all of the individual batteries are the same voltage, if arranged in a parallel circuit the voltage is the same as any one battery. If arranged in a series circuit the voltage will be the sum (the total) of all of the batteries added together.
Voltage varies or is the same in all parts of a series circuit?
Current is the same at all points in a series circuit.No statement can be made concerning voltage. Voltage is a potential differencebetween two points, and you haven't specified a point for reference.
How is the current affected in a series circuit?
A: In series circuit the current remains the same no matter how many components are in series. just the voltage will change to reflect different voltage drops for each.
What is true about the sum of the voltages across the components in a circuit compared to the voltage of the cell?
voltage is devided only in series circuit and is the same at the parallel circuit
Is voltage the same at all points in a circuit?
Yes it is in series and parallel
What is the formula for total current in a series circuit?
Current = (Voltage across the circuit) divided by (Total resistance of the circuit). The current is the same at every point in the series circuit.
State two rules for the voltage and current in a series circuit?
Kirchoff's voltage law and Kirchoff's current law
What the advantages of series circuits?
While many of the terminal parts of a circuit may be a series element, in most circuits there will be both series and parallel components. Neither is superior - they both have their appropriate applications.
