Explain in detail the division of current in parallel circuits and voltagedivision in series circuit circuit.

Sure, let's start with the division of current in parallel circuits.

1. In a parallel circuit, the current divides among each path according to the resistance of each path. The total current in the circuit is equal to the sum of the currents through each path.

2. Ohm's law (I = V/R) is used to calculate the current through each path. If the resistance is high, the current will be low and vice versa.

3. The voltage across each path in a parallel circuit is the same. This is because each path is directly connected to the voltage source.

4. If one path in a parallel circuit is broken, current will continue to flow in the other paths.

Now, let's move on to voltage division in series circuits.

1. In a series circuit, the voltage divides among each component according to the resistance of each component. The total voltage in the circuit is equal to the sum of the voltages across each component.

2. Ohm's law (V = IR) is used to calculate the voltage across each component. If the resistance is high, the voltage will be high and vice versa.

3. The current through each component in a series circuit is the same. This is because there is only one path for the current to flow.

4. If one component in a series circuit is broken, current will stop flowing in the entire circuit.

In summary, in parallel circuits, current divides and voltage remains the same across each path. In series circuits, voltage divides and current remains the same through each component.
