The effect on current flow and voltages across resistors for
- resistors connected in series
- resistors connected in parallel

can anyone help me and tell me the diffrences?

Hi master_mind! Welcome to PF! :wink:

In one case, the current is the same; in the other case, the voltage is the same.

Which way round do you think it is, and why? :smile:
 
is it that in the series circuit the current is the same across all resistors, and on the parallel circuit the voltage is the same across each resistor.

thanks
