proportional to the voltage across it (keeping R
as constant)

Series Circuits
Two elements are in series if
1. They have only one terminal in common (i.e.,
one lead of one is connected to only one lead
of the other).
2. The common point between the two elements
is not connected to another current-carrying
element.
3. The current is the same through series
elements.
