I need some help here.
My A+ teacher today said that things wired in series the voltage is constant.
And things wired in paralell the amp are constant.
I tired to prove to him that he was wrong but we got into an argument and class had to end. I showed him a computer power supply and showed him the molex connectors and said that those were wired in paralell. He said the it was a series it " hit the load first before going out the wire to the other molex connector. Now what i don't understand is how is that possible if their both wired to the same peice of metal.
He also went on to say that the outlets of a house are wired in series. I don't beleive that is true ethier because series DOES NOT perserve V and all outlets must be 120V.
My problem is that i need some more proof. I am planning on getting my friends pyhisics book to back me and i have a basic electronics book that supports me. If anyone has any other online resorces that suport me please post them here.
THANKS
