Question

resistors in series explain

Answer 1

The current is the same through each resistor. The total resistance of the circuit is found by simply adding up the resistance values of the individual resistors: equivalent resistance of resistors in series : R = R1 + R2 + R3 .

Resistors in series or complicated resistor networks can be replaced by one single equivalent resistor, REQ or impedance, ZEQ and no matter what the combination or complexity of the resistor network is, all resistors obey the same basic rules as defined by Ohm’s Law and Kirchhoff’s Circuit Laws.
