The flow of charge through any materialencounters an opposing force similar inmany aspect to mechanical friction. Thisopposition, due to the collisions betweenelectrons and other atoms in the material, which converts electrical energy intoanother form of energy such as heat
, is
called the
resistance
of the material. The

Series Circuits - Introduction

Two types of current are available to the consumer today. One is

direct

current (dc),

in which ideally the flow of charge (current) does not

change in magnitude with time. The other is sinusoidal

alternating

current (ac),

in which the flow of charge is continually changing in

magnitude with time.

Voltage Sources in Series

Voltage sources can be connected in series, as shown in Fig. 5.7, to increaseor decrease the total voltage applied to a system. The net voltage isdetermined simply by summing the sources with the same polarity andsubtracting the total of the sources with the opposite polarity.

Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law

Kirchhoff’s voltage law (KVL) states that the algebraic sum of thepotential rises and drops around a closed loop (or path) is zero. A

closed loop

is any continuous path that leaves a point in one direction

and returns to that same point from another direction without leaving thecircuit.

Voltage Divider Rule (VDR)

The voltage divider rule (VDR) can be derived by analyzing the network of Fig. 5.15.

The voltage across the resistive elements will divide as the magnitude of the resistance levels.

R

T

= R

1

+ R

2

The voltages across the resistive elements of Fig. 5.13 are provided. Since the resistance level of R

1

is 6 times that of R

3

, the voltage across R

1

is 6 times that of

and

I = E/R

T

R

3

. The fact that the resistance level of R

2

is 3 times that of R

1

results in three times

the voltage across R

2

. Finally, since R

1

is twice R

2

, the voltage across R

1

is twice

Applying Ohm’s law:

that of R

2

. If the resistance levels of all resistors of Fig. 5.13 are increased by the

same amount, as shown in Fig. 5.14, the voltage levels will all remain the same.

In Fig. 5.31, V

a

is the voltage from

point a to ground. In this case it isobviously 10V since it is right acrossthe source voltage E. The voltage V

b

is

the voltage from point b to ground.Because it is directly across the 4-

resistor, V

b

= 4V.

A single-subscript notation can be employed that provides the voltage at apoint with respect to ground.

FIGURE 5.

Defining the use of single-

subscript notation for voltage levels.

The single-subscript notation V

a

specifies the voltage at point a with respect

to ground (zero volts). If the voltage is less than zero volts, a negative signmust be associated with the magnitude of V

General Comments

A particularly useful relationship can now be established that will haveextensive applications in the analysis of electronic circuits. For the abovenotational standards, the following relationship exists:

Starting at Ground, we proceedthrough a rise of 10 V to reachpoint a and then pass through adrop in potential of 4 V to point b.

The result is that the meter

will read

= +10V – 4V = 6V

The other approach is to redraw the network as shownin Fig. 5.37 to clearly establish the aiding effect of E

and then solve the resulting series circuit.

There are two ways to approach this problem. The first is thatthere is a 54-V drop across the series resistors R

Ideal Voltage Sources vs. Non-ideal Voltage Sources

Every source of voltage, whether a generator, battery, or laboratory supply asshown in Fig. 5.41(a), will have some

internal resistance (know as the non-

ideal voltage source)

. The equivalent circuit of any source of voltage will

therefore appear as shown in Fig. 5.41(b).
