Voltage Division in a Series Circuit

The voltage across a resistor in a series circuit is equal to the value of that resistor
times the total applied voltage divided by the total resistance of the series
configuration.

Voltage divider approach:

𝑅1
𝑉1 = ×𝐸
𝑅1 + 𝑅2 + 𝑅3
𝑅2
𝑉2 = ×𝐸
𝑅1 + 𝑅2 + 𝑅3
𝑅3
𝑉3 = ×𝐸
𝑅1 + 𝑅2 + 𝑅3

6.2 PARALLEL RESISTORS Chapter 6
Two elements, branches, or circuits are in parallel if they have two points in common. The
total resistance of parallel resistors is always less than the value of the smallest resistor. The
total resistance of parallel resistors will always drop as new resistors are added in parallel,
irrespective of their value.

Special Case: Two Parallel Resistors
