the liquid of the cell, which offers resistanceto the current, and in it the potential follows exactly the samelaws as in the solid part of the circuit. To illustrate this, let 220 Electricity. [Book I1L us take a single cell, and complete the diagram by setting offa horizontal line ABC, in which… … Fig. 136. If there are several cells in compound circuit, AB representsthe total resistance, and AD the total E.M.F. of the battery.The line of potential will not then be DC, but a broken linewhich rises at each cell. Thus, supposing we have threecells, the line of potential will be given by E, F,…
