Three resistors of equal resistance are connected in series as shown. Compared to the voltage provided by the battery, voltage across each of the resistors is .

Respuesta :

Answer:

the voltage across each resistor is one third of the battery voltage

Explanation:

In a series circuit, the current is constant throughout the circuit, so the battery voltage is equal to the sum of the voltage drop in each part of the series circuit.

        V = i (R₁ + R₂ + R₃)

       

in the exercise indicate that all resistance has the same value

         R₀ = R₁ = R₂ = R₃

        V = i 3 R₀

        V = 3 V₀

         V₀ = i R₀

          V₀= V / 3

the voltage across each resistor is one third of the battery voltage
