Which statement is true for a series circuit?

Question

A.
The voltage is the same across all resistors in the circuit.
B.
As more resistors are added, the current will increase.
C.
The average of the voltage drops will be the total voltage in the circuit.
D.
The current is the same across all resistors in the circuit.
E.
The equivalent resistance will be less than the resistance of each individual resistor.

Answer 1

The correct statement for a series circuit is:

D. The current is the same across all resistors in the circuit.

In a series circuit, the same amount of current flows through each component connected in the circuit, while the voltage drop across each resistor may vary depending on its resistance.
