Question

Will set up the following series circuit with identical fixed resistors. What is the voltage across each resistor if the input voltage is 12 V?

Answer 1

The voltage across each resistor in a series circuit is the same. Therefore, if the input voltage is 12 V and there are n resistors in the circuit, the voltage across each resistor will be:

V = 12 V / n

For example, if there are three identical fixed resistors in the circuit, the voltage across each resistor will be:

V = 12 V / 3 = 4 V
