Three V-I graphs are drawn individually for two resistors and their series combination. out of A, B, C which one represents the graph for series combination of the other two? Give reason for your answer.
By Ohm’s Law
⇒ = slope of V-I graph
Therefore, the slope of the V-I graph represents the effective resistance.
Now in series combination of the resistance all the resistances get summed up
+ ………….+ Rn.
Therefore, the series combination will have the maximum resistance than the other resistors.
Hence the line with maximum slope (line C) will give the series combination of the other two resistors.
