Hi, Can someone explain to me about parallel and series circuits?

Question

Not sure if this is what you are asking for.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits

anonymous · Answer

I use this site http://utwired.engr.utexas.edu/rgd1/ It has very clear explanations and sample problems with solutions. The solutions pop up after you make a guess at the answer. Then I print the step by step solution and study it. It is much clearer than the course textbook. Good luck.

When two or more circuit elements have same potential difference across them they can be said to be in parallel and when same current flows through them they can be said to be in series.

Consider circuit as Water pipe distribution system as defined in B.L theraja book

whenever the circuit elements like resistsnce,capacitance have same potential drop across itself then that elements will be connected in parallel connecion, but if the potential drop is different then it will be connected in series. 
Resistance in series:-$$Req= R1+R2+R3.....$$ 
Resistance in parallel:-
$$Req=(R1R2R3....) \div (R1+R2+R3+...)$$
