Series Circuits Questions

• Calculate the voltage at point C in the given circuit.
• These components are in series.
• Ground is the reference point from which voltages are measured in an electronic circuit.
• If 7.3 kΩ, 1.8 kΩ, and 4.9 kΩ resistors are wired in series, the total resistance is 14 kΩ.
• The total resistance of a series circuit is equal to the average of all the resistance values.
• To find the total resistance in series, add the individual resistances.
• The sum of the voltage drops across series resistors must equal the total voltage applied.
• If four 9 V batteries are connected series-aiding, the total voltage is 36 V.
• A short in a series circuit causes the total circuit current to decrease.
• An open in a series circuit will cause maximum voltage across the power supply terminals.
• Voltage sources are added when they are series-opposing.
• The total resistance of a series circuit always depends on the highest value resistor in that circuit.
• The total resistance is 35 Ω.
• The total power dissipated in a series resistive circuit exceeds the sum of the resistor powers.
• As additional resistors are added to a series circuit, the total circuit resistance increases.
• A series circuit provides only one path for current between two points.
• In a series circuit, the current flowing out of a resistor won't always equal the current flowing into that resistor.
• The voltage across R1 is 10 volts.
• The sum of all the voltage drops in a series circuit equals the source voltage.
• Using a voltage divider the voltage across R1 is 10 V, R2 is 15 V, and R3 is 30 V.
