Current. There is only one path that current can take through the circuit, so the current must be the same at every point.
No... the order won't matter. Since the bulbs are hooked up in series, the total resistance across the circuit, regardless of the order, will remain the same. Therefore, the lights will have the same intensity regardless of the order. Also, by Kirchoff's Current Law, the signed sum of the currents entering a node is equal to zero. As a consequence, in a series circuit, the current at every point in that circuit is the same.
Current in a series circuit travels in one path. This is because a series circuit is only one path. current in a series circuit stays the same thoughout the circuit this means that if in the beginning of the circuit there are 2 amps of current there will be the same ammount of current in the middle and in the end of it. if you don't understand this please tell me and ill explain in a better way.
They are not exactly the same. A series circuit is one complete circuit with not other pathways. A parallel circuit is a complete circuit with multiple pathways . The resistance of a parallel circuit is completely different from the resistance of a series circuit. Therefore, this affects the voltage and the current produced,
True...!
Two resistors wired in series (no mater if they have the same resistor value or not) will always have the same amount of current flowing through them. Therefore, the current flowing through the second resistor will be equal to the current flowing through the first one. The current through every component in a series circuit is the same. The voltage across every component in a parallel circuit is the same.
Yes, the current is the same at every point in a series circuit.
Yes.
A series circuit has the same amount of current at all points in the circuit.CommentIt's not simply 'the same amount of current at all points''; it's the same current at all points.
No. In a series circuit, current is the same, by Kirchoff's current law, at every point in the circuit, so you either have current at every point, or you have no current at every point.
Current = (Voltage across the circuit) divided by (Total resistance of the circuit). The current is the same at every point in the series circuit.
Nothing about a series circuit is necessarily constant. You may be thinking of the current, which is the same number at any point in a series circuit. That doesn't mean that it can't change. But if it does change, it'll change at every point, and still be the same number everywhere in the series circuit.
The current flowing through a series circuit is (voltage between the circuit's ends) / (sum of all resistances in the circuit). The current is the same at every point in the series circuit.
In a series circuit, the current at every point in the circuit is the same. This is a consequence of Kirchoff's Current Law, which states that the signed sum of the currents entering a node must equal zero. Since a series circuit consists of nodes with only two elements connected to each node, it follows that the current at every point in a series circuit is the same.
The current at different places in a series circuit is the same. Kirchoff's current law states that the signed sum of the currents entering a node is zero. A consequence of this is that the current at every point in a series circuit is the same.
In a series circuit, components (such as resistors, bulbs, or other devices) are connected end-to-end so that there is only one path for the current to flow. Because there is only one pathway for the current, the same current passes through each component in the circuit. This principle is derived from the conservation of electric charge. Since charge cannot accumulate or disappear in a closed circuit, the current that enters a component must be equal to the current that exits that component. In other words, the flow of current is continuous and consistent throughout the series circuit. Mathematically, this can be expressed as: I_total = I_1 = I_2 = I_3 = ... = I_n Where: I_total is the total current entering the series circuit. I_1, I_2, I_3, ..., I_n are the currents through each individual component in the circuit. It's important to note that while the current remains the same throughout a series circuit, the voltage (potential difference) across each component can vary depending on its resistance or impedance, according to Ohm's Law (V = I * R).
Since (by Kirchoff's current law) the current in a series circuit is the same at every point in the series circuit, it does not matter where you place the ammeter.
A series circuit is where there is only one path for the current. As a result, and as a direct consequence of Kirchoff's current law, the current at every point in a series circuit is the same. The two bulbs have the same current flowing through them.
