Proof of cells in parallel having different. Resistance
Answers
There are mainly two types of circuits, series and parallel. Cells can be connected both in series, parallel or a combination of both. In series circuit electrons travel only in one path. Here the current will be the same which passes through each resistor. The voltage across resistors in a series connection will be different. Series circuits do not overheat easily. The design of series circuit is simple compared to parallel circuits.
In parallel circuit electrons travel through many branches in it. In this case, the voltage remains the same across each resistor in the circuit. Here the current in the circuit is divided among each branch and finally recombines when the branches meet at a common point. A parallel circuit can be formed in many ways, which means cells can be arranged in different forms. Parallel circuits can be used as a current divider. It is easy to connect or disconnect a new cell or other component without affecting the other elements in the parallel circuit. But it uses a lot of wires and hence becomes complex.
