What is the relationship between the voltage across the energy source and the voltages across the lamps in parallel

In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each of the components is the same, and the total current is the sum of the currents through each component. If two or more components are connected in parallel they have the same potential difference ( voltage) across their ends.

Is a  vector quantity  that refers to "the rate at which an object changes its position." imagine a person moving rapidly - one step forward and one step back - always returning to the original starting position. while this might result in a frenzy of activity, it would result in a zero velocity. because the person always returns to the original position, the motion would never result in a change in position. since velocity is defined as the rate at which the position changes, this motion results in zero velocity. if a person in motion wishes to maximize their velocity, then that person must make every effort to maximize the amount that they are displaced from their original position. every step must go into moving that person further from where he or she started. for certain, the person should never change directions and begin to return to the starting position.
