Equivalent resistance of resistors in series.
Series resistors
The current I is the same through all resistors placed in series.
Parallel resistors
The potential differences V are the same across all resistors placed in parallel
=
The behavior of the circuit will be unchanged if the N parallel/series
resistors are replaced by the single resistor Req

Series Resistors I
Assume that the voltage of the battery is 9 V
and that the three resistors are identical.
What is the potential difference across each
resistor?
A) 12 V
B) zero
C) 3 V
D) 4 V
E) you need to know the
actual value of R
Since the resistors are all equal,
R
R
R
the voltage will drop evenly
across the 3 resistors, with 1/3 of
9 V across each one. So we get a
3 V drop across each.

Example:
Analyzing a complex circuit
a)Find the equivalent resistance.
b)Find the current through and
the potential difference across
each of the resistors in the circuit.

Kirchhoff’s Law
Some circuits are too complicated to analyze
(none of the elements are in series/parallel)
Kirchhoff’s rules are very helpful.
To analyze a circuit means to find:
1. ΔV across each component
2. The current in each component

Kirchhoff’s Loop Law
For any path that starts and ends at the same point:
The sum of all the potential differences encountered
while moving around a loop or closed path is zero.
