A
Series
2
Q
What happens to current at the junction of two components in series? (T5D13)
A
It is unchanged
3
Q
What is the voltage across each of two components in series with a voltage source? (T5D15)
A
It is determined by the type and value of the components
4
Q

A
Parallel
5
Q
What is the voltage across each of two components in parallel with a voltage source? (T5D16)
A
The same voltage as the source
6
Q
What happens to current at the junction of two components in parallel? (T5D14)
A
It divides between them dependent on the value of the components
