ok let me ask another question in the same schematic drawings as similar post, let's pretend instead of light bulb, and a switch, it's a resistor in its place, doesn't the position relative to the battery indicate which branch receives current first? (even if it's a nanosecond difference)...

can you answer this question: https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20140624162255AAi0PkA

What are the currents in the branches and the current leading back to battery? what are the currents of i1, i2, and i3? correct me if i am wrong? see this link for the photo: https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20140624141132AAGWlYr

i found a clear easy to understand link: http://plaza.obu.edu/corneliusk/ec/ they explain better than you guys did because they have diagrams that are more clear to understand

found another helpful link: http://www.ibiblio.org/kuphaldt/electricCircuits/DC/DC_5.html it shows arrow signs for more detail on where the current is going at any given time.

this is what a battery looks like inside. i didn't see any plates

thanks phinds. i sort of understand now. it's like -+-+-+, - and + being plates

here is a new response i got from a different source: https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20140622143033AAdyCih

phinds, i understand what you mean about nodes

ok let me rephrase this question. similar to asking "why is the moon colored white? or " why is the sky blue", why does voltage in series add up voltages of batteries from + to - as in the photo i uploaded? it's that simple. yet people give me the obvious answer of "that's how their voltages add...

in some aspects amasci can be difficult to understand. i'm reading Electricity Experiments you can do at home by stan gibilisco for more help.

mrsparkle is there a source website* where i can learn this? i only have a general physics I community college background. i mean electric fields and how it pushes charge and what not.
