🔍 Key Concepts

• Figure B shows a series circuit (one continuous loop) with R1, R2, and R3 all in line with the source Es. • Review Ohm’s Law: ( I = \dfrac{E}{R} ) and how total resistance in series is found: ( R_T = R_1 + R_2 + R_3 ). • In a series circuit, the same current flows through every component; voltage drops change, not the current.

💭 Think About

• Look at figure B and trace the path of current. Does it have more than one path, or only a single loop? How does that affect the current through each resistor? • Using Ohm’s Law, if the supply voltage Es stays constant and you increase the total resistance, what happens to the current for the entire circuit? • Ask yourself whether different resistor values in series cause different currents or different voltage drops across each resistor.

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm that in series circuits: ( R_T = R_1 + R_2 + R_3 ) and the current ( I ) is the same through R1, R2, and R3. • Check which options describe how the total circuit current changes when total resistance changes, with voltage held constant. • Eliminate any options that claim different currents in each resistor for a true series circuit.
