Explanation:
Series combination of resistors”:
when two or more resistors are combined together end to end. This combination is called series combination of resistors.
In a figure shows the series combination of three resistors of resistance R1, R2 and R3 respectively. Equal current I ampere is flowing through each resistor but potential difference produce across different registers are different as V1, V2 and V3.
we know that in series combination: Applied potential = sum of all P.D across
different registers
V = V1 + V2 + V3 --------(1)
By ohm's law:
P.D across first resistor, V1 = R1×I
P.D across second resistor, V2 = R2×I
P.D across third resistor, V3 = R3×I
If the equivalent resistance of the combination be “R” ohm. Thus we can replace all the resistance by single resistor of resistance R.
then,
potential difference across equivalent register, V = R×I
All these value put in eqn1
R×I = R1×I + R2×I + R3×I
R×I = I ( R1+ R2+ R3)
[ R = R1+ R2+ R3 ]
