What is the relationship between the voltage output at the interface and the voltage across the series and parallel circuit?
Ohm's law states that the current in a circuit is inversely proportional to the circuit resistance. There is a single path for current in a series circuit. The amount of current is determined by the total resistance of the circuit and the applied voltage.
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.
How do resistance behave in parallel circuit?
in a parallel circuit resistance decreases increasing the current.
Why is voltage split over a series circuit?
Voltage drop due to the resistance present in the series circuit causes voltage split over a series circuit.
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.
Where is the most resistance lost in a series circuit?
Resistance isn't lost. The largest voltage drop will occur across the largest resistance in a series circuit.
How does voltage and resistance behave in a series and a parallel circuit?
The current through each resistor is equal to the voltage across it divided by its resistance for series and parallel circuits.

What is the total voltage drop across a set of resistors in series?
Simply add all of the component's resistances together and that will give you circuits total resistance. If you're dealing with a 'series-parallel', or 'parallel' circuit, the equations will change, but in a simple series circuit, the total resistance is just the total of all the component's resistance.
If the resistance in the circuit is increased what will happen to the current and voltage?
* resistance increases voltage. Adding more resistance to a circuit will alter the circuit pathway(s) and that change will force a change in voltage, current or both. Adding resistance will affect circuit voltage and current differently depending on whether that resistance is added in series or parallel. (In the question asked, it was not specified.) For a series circuit with one or more resistors, adding resistance in series will reduce total current and will reduce the voltage drop across each existing resistor. (Less current through a resistor means less voltage drop across it.) Total voltage in the circuit will remain the same. (The rule being that the total applied voltage is said to be dropped or felt across the circuit as a whole.) And the sum of the voltage drops in a series circuit is equal to the applied voltage, of course. If resistance is added in parallel to a circuit with one existing circuit resistor, total current in the circuit will increase, and the voltage across the added resistor will be the same as it for the one existing resistor and will be equal to the applied voltage. (The rule being that if only one resistor is in a circuit, hooking another resistor in parallel will have no effect on the voltage drop across or current flow through that single original resistor.) Hooking another resistor across one resistor in a series circuit that has two or more existing resistors will result in an increase in total current in the circuit, an increase in the voltage drop across the other resistors in the circuit, and a decrease in the voltage drop across the resistor across which the newly added resistor has been connected. The newly added resistor will, of course, have the same voltage drop as the resistor across which it is connected.
How do resistance behave in parallel circuit?
in a parallel circuit resistance decreases increasing the current.
Why is voltage split over a series circuit?
Voltage drop due to the resistance present in the series circuit causes voltage split over a series circuit.
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 the purpose of using the series resistance in a clipping circuit?
something to drop the excess voltage across while clipping.
In what part of the circuit do the electric charges releases most of their energy?
The component with the highest resistance in a series circuit will have, or "drop" the most voltage across it. All of the components in a series circuit will have the same amount of current flowing through them but not the same voltage drops if the resistances are different. More resistance more voltage across it, less resistance, less voltage across it.
What happens when one bulb is added to a series circuit?
The resistance is increased, the voltage across each bulb is decreased and the current through the circuit is reduced.
