Determine whether resistors are in series, parallel, or a combination of both series and parallel. Examine the circuit diagram to make this assessment. Resistors are in series if the same current must pass sequentially through them. Use the appropriate list of major features for series or parallel connections to solve for the unknowns.

In a series resistor network the individual resistors add together to give an equivalent resistance, ( R T) of the series combination. The resistors in a series circuit can be interchanged without affecting the total resistance, current, or power to each resistor or the circuit.
What if we want to connect various resistors together in “BOTH” parallel and series combinations within the same circuit to produce more complex resistive networks, how do we calculate the combined or total circuit resistance, currents and voltages for these resistive combinations.
Determine whether resistors are in series, parallel, or a combination of both series and parallel. Examine the circuit diagram to make this assessment. Resistors are in series if the same current must pass sequentially through them.
Resistors in Series. Description how to calculate resistors in series. When multiple resistors are connected in a line where the current flows through them in sequence, we call it a series connection of resistors.
Compare the resistances and electromotive forces for the voltage sources connected in the same and opposite polarity, and in series and in parallel. When more than one voltage source is used, they can be connected either in series or in parallel, similar to resistors in a circuit.
Determine whether resistors are in series, parallel, or a combination of both series and parallel. Examine the circuit diagram to make this assessment. Resistors are in series if the same current must pass sequentially through them.
