Components are said to be connected in parallel when they are connected across each other (separate loops) (8, 7) 5. The difference between a source's emf and the terminal voltage. It is equal to the potential difference across the source's internal resistance (4, 5) Down 2. The potential difference across resistors connected in parallel is identical for each resistor. The current is split between the resistors. The total resistance is equal to the inverse of the sum of the inverses of the resistances of the resistors (9, 2, 8) 3. The current through resistors connected in series is identical for each resistor. The potential difference is split in the ration of their resistances. The total resistance is equal to the sum of the resistances of the resistors (9, 2, 6) 4. A method of splitting a potential difference, by connecting two resistors in series. The total potential difference is split in the ratio of their resistances (9, 7) 6. The potential difference across the terminals of a power source. It is equal to the source's emf minus any voltage drop over the source's internal resistance (8, 2) 7. Components are said to be connected in series when they are connected end to end (in one loop) (6, 7)
