Porter · Answer 1

The total resistance of an electric circuit with resistors widener series in the sum of the individual resistances:

Each resistor in a series circuit has a same amount of current flowing through it.

Each resistor in a parallel circuit has the same for voltage of the source applied to it.

When was this is are connected in parallel, the supply current is equal to the sum of the current through each resistor. In other words the currents in the branches of a parallel circuit add up to the supply current. When resistors are connected in parallel they have the same potential differences across them.
