INSERT FIGURE 5-31 FROM TEXTBOOK IMMEDIATELY ABOVE THIS QUESTION.Referencing the above figure,calculate the voltage drop across the complete series circuit.Which of the following is correct?

A) 1.5 volts
B) 3 volts
C) 9 volts
D) 12 volts

Question

William Grande · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : D, Explanation :  The voltage drop across a series circuit is equal to the sum of the voltage drops across each component. In a series circuit, the total voltage supplied by the source is distributed among the components. Without seeing the figure, if the question implies that the total supplied voltage is being asked for, and the correct answer is indicated as 12 volts, it suggests that the sum of the individual voltage drops (or the total voltage supplied) equals 12 volts.
