Lab5: Measurements in Series Circuits

Reading time: 10 mins

In this prelab, we will focus on the properties of series circuits.

First, we need to identify series connection. When two circuit components share ONE common node and share SAME CURRENT, these two components are called series connected. They must satisfy TWO conditions to be identified as series connection.

Secondly, the properties of series circuit include three parts, the total resistance, current in the circuit, and voltage of each resistor.

The following video explained series circuit in details.

Now you can work on the quiz on Blackboard.
