Answer:
The answer is B.
Explanation:
Given that the <em>current </em>(Ampere) in a series circuit is same so we can ignore it. We can assume that the total voltage is 60V and all the 3 resistance are different, 20Ω, 40Ω and 60Ω. So first, we have to find the total resistance by adding :
Total resistance = 20Ω + 40Ω + 60Ω
= 120Ω
Next, we have to find out that 1Ω is equal to how many voltage by dividing :
120Ω = 60V
1Ω = 60V ÷ 120
1Ω = 0.5V
Lastly, we have to calculate the voltage at R1 so we have to multiply by 20 (R1) :
1Ω = 0.5V
20Ω = 0.5V × 20
20Ω = 10V
