उत्तर

 

If current I is drawn from the battery, the current through each resistor will also be I.
On applying Ohm's law to the two resistors separately, we further 

have
`"V"_1 = "I R"_1`

`"V"_2 = "I R"_2`

`"V" = "V"_1 + "V"_2`

`"IR" = "I R"_1+ "I R"_2`

`"IR" = "I " ["R"_1+ "R"_2]`

`"R" = "R"_1+ "R"_2`

Total Resistance in series R

`"R" = "R"_1+"R"_2+"R"_3`
