Question

State two characteristics of resistances in the series circuit.

Answer 1

Characteristics of resistance in series:

1. The sum total of resistances in series increases with an increase in the number of resistors.
2. The potential difference remaining constant, the current in series circuit decreases with the increase in the number of resistors in series.
3. All the elements in series circuit work simultaneously. If the circuit is broken anywhere between the elements, none of the elements work.
