Two students perform the experiments on series and parallel


Asked by admin @ in Physics viewed by 294 People


Two students perform the experiments on series and parallel combinations of two given resistors R₁ and R₂ and the following V-I graphs.(attached below)

Which of two diagrams correctly represent the labels 'series and parallel' on the plotted curves ? justify your answer. please explain in the simplest way

Answered by admin @



By ohm's law, V=IR
In first graph slope= V/I=R. so greater the resistance, greater the slope or inclination. We know R in series is greater than in parallel so its inclination will be greater and thus the first graph.
The second case is total opposite.
