In series circuits, the current is the same through each component. The potential difference of the power supply is shared between the components. A parallel circuit showing two bulbs, a switch ...

On a test I took in fourth grade, one question required me to list the similarities between series and parallel circuits. “No matter which one you stick your finger into, you’ll get electrocuted,” I ...
