  1. Question 1

    Q1. A 5 Ω resistor and a 10 Ω resistor are connected in series. If a current of 1 A flows through the circuit, what is the voltage drop across the 5 Ω resistor?

    • A) 1.0 V
    • B) 2.0 V
    • C) 3.0 V
    • D) 5.0 V

    Answer: 3.0 V

    Explanation: Using the formula V = IR, we find the voltage drop across the 5 Ω resistor. The other options are incorrect due to incorrect calculations or assumptions.
