Question

Which of the following illustrates 2 resistors in a series circuit?

Answer 1

b

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Explanation :

An electrical circuit can be either connected in series or parallel.

Series combination: The current flowing in each resistor is the same and the equivalent resistance is given by :

`R{eq}=R_1+R_2+R_3+.................+R_n`

Parallel combination: The voltage for all components in the parallel combination is the same. The equivalent resistance is given by :

`(1)/(R_(eq))=(1)/(R_(1))+(1)/(R_(2))+(1)/(R_(3))......................+(1)/(R_(n))`

So, our of given options the correct one is (b) because the current flowing in both the resistors is the same.
