Ok, I'm working on my degree in electronics but still a newb. Sometimes I have trouble grasping things because it is so abstract. Here's my question, lets say you have a series circuit with a 5v emf, 2 resistors, both with a 2.5v drop. In a series, voltage drop, circuit the voltage drop always equals the supplied voltage, well if you "drop" 5 volts how does the current continue to travel through the rest of the circuit without the voltage to push it? I know how to go the math in circuits but not getting this. I know I am looking at it wrong but can not get it. Thanks for any help...
