R1=12ohm

R2=4ohm

potential difference is=R1+R2

=12+4

=16

• Resistance

Resistance is a measure of the opposition to current flow in an electrical circuit .

• Potential Difference

Potential difference is the difference in the amount of energy that charge carriers have between two points in a circuit .

• Current

Current is the rate of flow of electric charge .

• Ohm's Law

Ohm’s law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it, provided all physical conditions and temperature remain constant .

• Ampere

One ampere is equal to a flow of one coulomb of charge per second .

• Volt

One Volt is defined as energy consumption of one joule per electric charge of one coulomb .

• Ohm

One ohm is equal to the resistance of a conductor through which a current of one ampere flows when a potential difference of one volt is applied to it .
