Question

Resistances R1 = 10 , R2= 6 R3=8 are connected in series. Calculate the total resistance &
current flowing in each resistance, If the potential difference is 12V
find the current through each resistor

Answer 1

total resistance will be r1 +r2+r3= 10+6+8=24 ohm

Answer 2

Resistances R1 = 10, R2= 6R3=8  are connected in series.

So the  current flowing in each resistance, If the potential difference is 12V is calculated as follows.

It is the sum of the three resistance R1, R2 and R3 which id 10 + 6 + 8 = 24 ohm.
