  1. Question 1

    Q1. Two 6 Ω resistors are connected in series. What is the total resistance?

    • A) 3 Ω
    • B) 6 Ω
    • C) 12 Ω
    • D) 36 Ω

    Answer: 12 Ω

    Explanation: For resistors in series the total resistance is the sum of individual resistances: R_total = R₁ + R₂ = 6 + 6 = 12 Ω. In a series circuit the same current flows through all components.
