How will you infer with the help of an experiment that the same current flows

Electricity (10)

How will you infer with the help of an experiment that the same current flows through every part of a circuit containing three
resistors in series connected to a battery ? 

Answer

  1. Join the three resistors of different values in series
  2. Connect them with battery, an ammeter and plug key.
  3. Plug the key and note the ammeter reading
  4. Change the position of ammeter to anywhere in between the resistors and note the ammeter reading each time.
  5. The ammeter reading will remain same every time. Therefore when resistors are connected in series same current flows through all resistors, when it is connected to a battery.
