A series circuit is defined as a circuit that contains only one path for current flow.
A circuit with a simple loop.

Slide 1 - Tekstslide

Series circuit 

Slide 2 - Tekstslide

One lamp off all lamps off

Slide 3 - Tekstslide

The current is the same in every part of the circuit 

Slide 4 - Tekstslide

Voltage in serie circuit 
The sum of the voltages across components in series is equal to the voltage of the supply.

Slide 5 - Tekstslide

Serie: one loop; one path.



Parallel: 
Branching circuits:
More than one loop

Slide 6 - Tekstslide

When we connect components in parallel, the components are connected on different branches of the circuit. There are two or more 'loops’ and multiple paths for a current to flow.

Slide 10 - Tekstslide

1.when current reaches a junction in the circuit, it splits up and some current flows along each route
2. when two branches of a circuit meet, the current combines again
3. the total current flowing through the cell can be found by adding the individual currents flowing through each branch.

Slide 11 - Tekstslide

The voltage across each component is the same.
The current splits up and is distributed over the various components.
