Question

Which is not the characteristic of a series circuit?

विकल्प

• The sum total of all resistances is more than any individual resistance.

• There is a continuous fall in potential all along in series circuit.

• The current is not a constant quantity in a series circuit.

• If 'V' is the total drop in potential in series circuit and V₁, V₂ and V₃ are the drops in potential across individual resistors then, V = V₁ + V₂ + V₃.

Answer 1

The current is not a constant quantity in a series circuit.

Explanation:

The current is the same through every component in a series circuit, so this statement is not a characteristic. The total resistance is the sum of the individual resistances, and the total potential difference is the sum of the individual drops.
