DC SERIES CIRCUITS
Dc circuits are in series when all the resistive components are connected end to end, to form a single
path for current flow.
An example of a dc series circuit is shown below
The dc series circuits operate on three rules of the ohms law;
i. The voltage law. That states, for a closed series path the algebraic sum of m all the
voltages across the closed loop is equal to zero.
ii. The voltage divider rule. In that the voltage divided across resistors connected in series is
directly promotional to their resistance.
iii. The basis series properties. a series is said to be convergent f it converges to some limit,
or divergent when it does not.

HOW TO BULD SERIES CIRCUITS.
Current should flow from point A to point D through B and C
A resistor should never be short circuited because short circuited
components will read will not have current flow thus zero voltage. That
would mean, when resistor R3 is short circuited total resistance will then be
(R1 + R2).
When one point left point, C is left open that would imply resistor 3 (R3) will
be omitted from the circuit.
