alleryIn a series circuit, the total voltage equals what?
AThe largest drop
BSum of the drops
CThe smallest drop
DZero always
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Sum of the drops
1. The voltage across a series network is the sum of the voltages across each component.
2. The largest or smallest single drop is not the total.
3. So the sum is correct.
