A series circuit is a type of electrical circuit where the components are connected in a single line. This means that the current flows through all of the components in the circuit in the same way.
Series circuits are often used in toys and other devices where it is important to have all of the components working together. For example, in a flashlight, the battery, the lightbulb, and the switch are all connected in series. This ensures that the lightbulb will only turn on when the switch is turned on and that the battery will not drain as quickly.
