Distinguish between series and parallel combination of resistances
Answers
Answer:
The major difference is that the series circuits have the same amount of current flow through all the components placed in it. ... On the other hand, in parallel circuits, the components are placed in parallel with each other. This circuit splits the current flow..
Explanation:
Series combination:
....The same amount of current flows through all the components
....In an electrical circuit, components are arranged in a line
....When resistors are put in a circuit, the voltage across each resistor is different even though the current flow is the same through all of them.
....If one component breaks down, the whole circuit will burn out. Other components will function even
Parallel combination :
....The current flowing through each components combines to form the current flow through the source.
....In an electrical circuit, components are arranged parallel with each other
....When resistors are put in this circuit, the voltage across each of the resistors is the same. And even the polarities are the same
....if one component breaks down, each has its own independent circuit
