Draw a schematic diagram of a circuit consisting of a battery of three cells of `2 V` each, a 5 ohm resistor, an 8 ohm resistor, and a 12 ohm resistor, and a plug key, all connected in series.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Three cells of potential 2 V, each connected in series therefore the potential difference of the battery will be 2 V + 2 V +2 V = 6 V. The following circuit diagram shown three resistors of resistances `5 Omega, 8 Omega " and " 12 Omega ` respectively connected in series and a battery of potential 6 V and a plug key which is closed means the current5 is flowing in the circuit.
