The voltage drop would be the difference between the two.

OpenStudy (dan815):

ok phew

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Think of it like going up and down hills, where the height is equal to the voltage.

OpenStudy (dan815):

i see so it must be -6 since we went down potential

1 more question just to make sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, but that has more to do with ohms law than how to add batteries in series..
