    I am amazed by this video, really great question presented here about a topic which we think we understand completely.
    So, the overall summary is that the current decreases due to the resistor, but it happens everywhere in the circuit and not just after the current has passed through the resistor in comparison to it entering it, I think it is analogous to a traffic jam, where if the cars in front slows down the whole traffic behind them gets slower.

    Hello, after watching your video, here is a question I have:
    Using this way to explain constant current, would that not mean should we have 2 resistors of same resistance in a circuit, lets say 10 ohms. Wouldn't that mean the maximum resistance is just 10 ohms and that it does not add together (which is wrong)
    Please and thank you.

    • @Musi_012
      @Musi_012 5 месяцев назад

      Actually it’s a pretty easy answer. I just had to think of it. It’s basically 20 ohms so added up because you have to imagine the current being slowed down 2 times with 10 ohms and so the whole current is slowed down by a total of 20 ohms. Because there is another resistor it just slows it down even more.
