If four resistances, each of value 1 ohm, are connected in series, what will be
If four resistances, each of value 1 ohm, are connected in series, what will be the resultant resistance?
- A. \) 3 ohm
- B. 4 ohm
- C. 5 ohm
- D. 2 ohm
Step-by-step solution
In a series circuit, the total resistance is the sum of individual resistances. With four 1 ohm resistors in series, total resistance = 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 4 ohms.
