Question 455Electricity & Electronics - Assistant Engineer
70% to passIn a series circuit, which value will remain unchanged at all places in the circuit?
AInductance
BVoltage
CCurrent
DResistance
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) Current. In a series circuit, the current remains unchanged at all places in the circuit. This is because the same current flows through each component in a series circuit, as there is only one path for the current to flow. The current is the same everywhere in the circuit, as it cannot be different at any point. The other options are incorrect because: A) Inductance is a property of the circuit components, not the current; B) Voltage can vary across different components in the circuit; and D) Resistance can also vary across different components in the circuit.
