A series circuit is a circuit where the components are connected in a single path, so the current flows through each component one after another.
congrats on reading the definition of Series circuit. now let's actually learn it.
Voltage Divider: A voltage divider is a series circuit that divides the total voltage across multiple resistors.
Ohm's Law states that the current flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage applied across it and inversely proportional to its resistance.
In a series circuit, the total resistance is equal to the sum of individual resistances.
