Solution

Both resistors have their respective effects on the voltage source.

Here's why:

  1. In a series circuit, the total resistance (R) is the sum of the individual resistances. Therefore, the series resistor will affect the total resistance and thus the current flowing through the circuit, as per Ohm's law (V = IR).

  2. In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each component is the same, and the total current is the sum of the currents through each component. Therefore, the parallel resistor will affect the total current and thus the voltage across the other components in the circuit.

So, both the series and parallel resistors have their respective effects on the voltage source.
