Question

find the effective resistance of a combination of resistors of resistance of 40 ohms and 60 ohms connected in series ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let R be the effective resistance

R = R1 + R2

= 40 + 60

= 100 ohm.

Answer 2

As they are in series so ,

Equivalent resistance= 40 ohms + 60 ohms

= 100 ohms

Therefore the effective resistance is 100 ohms
