V=IR

To calculate your voltage drop (V), you multiply your resistance (R, measured in Ohms) and current (I, measured in Amps [A]) by each other the. The number you are left with should be your voltage drop.

Is total voltage across any branch in in parallel is equal to the voltage across any other branch and is also equal to the total voltage?

Yes, in a parallel circuit, the voltage across each branch is the same and equal to the total voltage applied across the parallel combination. This means that regardless of the number of branches or their individual resistances, each branch experiences the same voltage. Consequently, the total voltage across the parallel network is equal to the voltage across each branch.


Does voltage divided by watts equal the current?

Electric power is not defined as current divided by voltage. Electric power (Watts) is equal to amps times voltage

No. Voltage divided by resistance is equal to current.


How is voltage spread out in series circuit?

By Kirchhoff's Voltage Law, the sum of the voltage drops around the series circuit will equal the voltage applied to the circuit.


What does kirchoff's law of voltage the algebriac sum ofm all the voltage in a series curcuit is equal to?

Zero. The sum of the voltage drops across all loads plus the voltage rises due to sources in a complete circuit must equal zero.


How are circuits connected when you are using more than one battery?

The batteries can be connected in parallel or in series. In parallel, good batteries of the same voltage will have a total voltage across them equal to the voltage across one of them. Those batteries in series will have a total voltage equal to the sum of the voltage of each of the batteries.
