Total resistance, R = 0.2 โฆ + 0.3 โฆ + 0.4 โฆ + 0.5 โฆ + 12 โฆ โ 13.4 โฆ
Potential difference, V = 9 V
Current through the series circuit, I =ย V/Rย =ย 12V/13.4ฮฉย = 0.67 A
โต There is no division of current in series. Therefore current through 12 โฆ resistor = 0.67 A.
Total resistance of resistors when connected in series is given by ๐ =๐ 1+๐ 2+๐ 3+๐ 4+๐ 5 โน๐ =0.2 ฮฉ+0.3 ฮฉ+0.4 ฮฉ+0.5 ฮฉ+12 ฮฉ=13.4 ฮฉ
According to Ohmโs law, V = IR
โน๐ผ=๐/๐ =9/13.4=0.67 ๐ด
