The analogy I'll be using for this discussion is the toll booth
analogy. It can actually be applied to both series and parallel
circuits, but I'll only address the former now. In this analogy,
traffic represents current and a toll booth represents resistors
(or resistance). Imagine traffic flowing on a busy highway and
the highway authority adds a toll booth. The flow rate would
slow down as drivers have to stop or slow down to pay the toll.
The same can be said for current as it passes through a resistor.
In a series circuit, with each subsequent resistor, resistance
increases and the flow rate slows. If more toll booths are
continuously added in a series, the "resistance" would increase
as the traffic continues to back up with each subsequent toll
booth added. Traffic therefore slows down overall. This is
representative of current, which slows down over time in a
series circuit.
