How will you infer with the help of an experiment that the same current flows through every part of the circuit containing three resistances in series connected to a battery?
• Take three resistances R1, R2 and R3.
• Connect them in series combination to complete a circuit; as shown in figure.
• First of all, connect the ammeter between battery and R1 and take its reading.
• After that, connect the ammeter between R1 and R2 and take its reading.
• Then, connect the ammeter between R2 and R3 and take its reading.
Observation:
It is observed that ammeter shows same reading in all situation. This shows that same current flows through every part of the circuit containing three resistances in series.
