Question

“N” number of resistors, each of resistance R, are connected in series across the voltage “V”, then which of the following statements is correct?

  1. The total voltage in the circuit is zero.
  2. Current in each resistance will divide equally among the resistors.
  3. Voltage across each resistor will divide equally among the resistors.
  4. Current will be very high.

hintHint:

In a circuit with resistors connected in series, the voltage or the potential drop across resistors of equal resistance is always equal.

The correct answer is: Voltage across each resistor will divide equally among the resistors.


    "Voltage across each resistor will divide equally among the resistors."this statement is correct.
    • When the resistors are connected in series, the voltage supplied to the circuit flows at the same frequency.
    • Each resistor possesses equal resistance of R.
    • The voltage among each resistor is the same as it divides equally or evenly distributed across all the resistors.
