Answer:
Resistors connected in series:
Let the two resistors be R₁ and R₂ and the potential difference across each resistor is V₁ and V₂ but the current flowing is same. Since, the resistors are connected in series, the equivalent resistance of the resistors is equal to sum of the individual resistance

Resistors in series
When two or more resistors are connected in series:
- The current through the circuit remains the same.
- The potential difference becomes sum of the individual potential difference across each resistor.
- Equivalent resistance of the circuit is the sum of individual resistances.
Disadvantages of series arrangement of resistors
- Two different electrical appliances, having different current requirements, cannot be connected in series as the current is constant in a series circuit.
- If one of the components fails in a series circuit, the circuit g,ets broken and none of the other components get the current.
