Task 1: In a SERIES circuit, certain general rules may be stated with regard to quantities of
voltage, current, resistance, and power. Express these rules, using your own words:
Current:
Resistance:
● The sum of the individual resistances of all the components in a series circuit is
the total resistance.
● As more resistors are connected in series, the circuit's overall resistance rises.
Power:
● Each component's voltage and resistance in a series circuit dictate how much
power it uses.
● The sum of the powers used by all of the components makes up the circuit's
overall power.
These guidelines emphasize that current flows through the circuit continuously while voltage
and resistance build up. They also highlight the additive nature of several electrical
characteristics in a series circuit.
Task 2: In a parallel circuit, certain general rules may be stated with regard to quantities of
voltage, current, resistance, and power. Express these rules, using your own words:
