build a circuit containing two resistors that are in series with each other. This circuit also contains two light bulbs that are in parallel to each other, but are in series to the resistors. Connected this to two batteries that are in series with each other.

I know you can't draw it here but can someone tell me descriptively how to draw it please?

1 answer

draw the batteries on the left, one above the other

next over, draw two resistors, in line on the same wire. Connect the ends of the wire to the top and bottom of the batteries.

Next over, draw two light bulbs beside each other. Connect the two top ends together, and the two bottom ends. Now connect the tops to the top of the battery, and the bottoms to the bottom of the battery.

You must surely have sample circuits where elements are connected in series and in parallel.

A good example is here:
