Answer:
(b) power dissipated in each.
(c) current through each.
Explanation:
When resistors are connected in series, the current through each resistor is the same. In other words, the current is the same at all points in a series circuit.
Rt = R1 + R2
Vt = V1 + V2
Power dissipated is only the same if R1 = R2
Power, P = I^2R
If R1 is not equal to R2,
P1 = I^2 R1
P2 = I^2 R2
Therefore, P1 is not equal to P2
