    What is the relationship between voltage and resistance in parallel circuits?

    I am trying to understand what exactly voltage is. I have been told that it is like the "pressure" of the electrons as they flow into the circuit. It makes sense to me that in a series circuit that voltage changes as it goes through a resistor. A resistor resists the flow of electrons, so...

    Total resistance in parallel circuits

    I understand why the total resistance in a series circuit is a total off all the resistance added together. It seems obvious because all of the electrons will have to go through all of the resistors. Now, total resistance in a parallel circuit is really messing with my head! In a parallel...
