Series Circuit

Real World Example

Imagine waiting in line at your favorite coffee shop during the morning rush. Just like how each person in the line must wait their turn to reach the counter, in a series circuit, the electric current travels through each component one after the other. The connection here is that in both the coffee line and a series circuit, there is only one path to follow, meaning any interruption or delay affects everything that follows—whether it's someone taking a long time with their order or a light bulb burning out along the circuit.
