    Resistance and Electric Potential

    Okay. One last thing regarding this... How does this work regarding multiple resistors, for example two in a series? That is, what causes the change in potential between the terminals of an individual resistor, when the resistors themselves do not affect the charge distribution? I understand a...

    Resistance and Electric Potential

    Oh I see. That makes a lot of sense. So if there was no resistor in a circuit, would the potential just keep building up?

    Resistance and Electric Potential

    This is probably a simple concept but I'm struggling a little bit understanding it. When power is dissipated through a resistor, how is potential actually lost? I understand energy is converted into heat and other forms, but isn't potential just defined as a function inversely proportional to...
