Voltage drop across a circuit is IZ, where I is current and Z is impedance. In other words IZ = IR + jIX, where R is resistance and X is inductance

In a series circuit why does the largest voltage drop occur across the largest or smallest resistor?

It doesn't. In a series circuit, the largest voltage drop occurs across the largest resistor; the smallest voltage drop occurs across the smallest resistor.


Is Voltage the same all parts of a series circuit?

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


What is total voltage in a series circuits?

In a series circuit the total voltage is the sum of the voltage drops across all the component in series. When the voltage drops across each the individual components are added up, they will equal the supply (or applied) voltage.


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


How do you convert voltage series into current series?

well current in a series circuit wont change so a voltage series is also a current series probablyAnswerYour question makes little sense. Applying a voltage across a series circuit results in current through that circuit, so what exactly are you asking?

Nothing.


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.


Does voltage add in a series circuit?

The voltage between the ends of the circuit doesn't change ... that's where the power source is connected. But when you add more items in a series circuit, the voltage across each item changes. The individual voltages across each item in the series circuit always add up to the voltage of the power source. So in general, if you add more items, the voltage across each of the original ones must drop somewhat.


Can there be a different voltage across each component in a circuit?

Yes, if it is a series circuit. In an ideal parallel circuit, there is equal voltage in each leg. In a real circuit, results may vary if there is voltage loss in the wiring.
