Set three resistances to 2, 3, and 5 Ohms in series, and determine the current in the circuit with an ammeter. Take the snapshot of the screen showing the circuits and the reading of the ammeter. Then, replace these three resistors with just one resistance of 10 Ohm. Determine the current running in the circuit. Take a snapshot showing the circuits and the reading of the ammeter. Is the current the same as in the previous experiment with the three resistors

Respuesta :

Answer:

the current in the circuit must be the same.

Explanation:

The equivalent resistance in a series circuit is the sum of the resistances

in this case

          R_{eq} = R₁ + R₂ + R₃

we calculate

          R_{eq} = 2 + 3 + 5

          R_{eq} = 10 Ω

We can see that the equivalent resistance is equal to the resistance to be changed, so the current in the circuit must be the same.

The only change there may be is due to the tolerances of the resistors
