In a series connection of components, what can be said about the electric current?
In a series connection of components, what can be said about the electric current?
- The electric current through each component is inversely proportional to its resistance.
- Each component has a different electric current through it, depending on its resistance.
- The electric current through each component is directly proportional to its resistance.
- Each component has the same electric current through it, equal to the current through the network. (correct)
What is the relationship between the voltage across the network and the voltages across each component in a series connection?
What is the relationship between the voltage across the network and the voltages across each component in a series connection?
- The voltage across the network is equal to the voltage across the component with the highest resistance.
- The voltage across the network is equal to the product of the voltages across each component.
- The voltage across the network is equal to the average of the voltages across each component.
- The voltage across the network is equal to the sum of the voltages across each component. (correct)
