Watch the video clip and see if you can tell what kind of circuit this is!
15
Series Circuit VS IS +V1− +V2− + V3 − +V5− +V6− V4 One path for current. So all components have the same current through them. But components have different voltages consistent with the voltage – current relationship for each type of component.

Watch the video clip and again, see if you can tell what kind of circuit this one is.
17
Parallel Circuit + VS − I1 I2 I3 I4 I5 One voltage source. So all components have the same voltage across them. But the components have different currents consistent with the voltage – current relationship for each type of component.
