NOTE
SERIES AND PARALLEL CONNECTION I
Types of resistors
In a series connection of resistors, they are connected end-to-end, creating a single path for the current to flow through. The total resistance in a series circuit is the sum of the individual resistances.
Series connection
In a parallel connection of resistors, each resistor has both of its terminals connected to the corresponding terminals of other resistors, creating multiple paths for the current to flow through. The total resistance in a parallel circuit is less than the smallest individual resistance.
Parallel connection
EVALUATION: 1. What is the difference between the connection in series and the connection in parallel
CLASSWORK: As in evaluation
CONCLUSION: The teacher commends the students positively
