Parallel Circuits Review
In a Parallel circuit, the Voltage across each cell is the same, while the total current is
equal to sum of the currents in each resistor.
In a series circuits, the total voltage is equal the sum of the voltages across each
resistor. The current, however is the same for each resistor.
