>So, in this analogy, the battery determines the "height difference." Everything in red is at height 1, and everything in blue is at height 2 (since the wires are ideal and so the voltage is always the same within a contiguous section of wire). So regardless of the circuit diagram's orientation, the difference across R1 & R2 is always the same, because the charges will be transitioning from "height 1" to "height 2" if they go across either resistor. Does that make sense?
Yes! Thank you so much anon!! Finally, one of the biggest 'wtf' moments for me has been cleared up, I really appreciate the help!
