HELP I NEED A FULL SOLUTION PLEASE THANKS

Resistors in Series Points:2 Two resistors R1 and R2 are connected to a voltage source as shown. Resistor R2 has a larger resistance than resisto R.e., R2> R1 OThe voltage drop across both resistors is equal The voltage drop across R1 is larger than across R2 O The voltage drop across R1 is smaller than across R2 Submit Answer Tries 0/2 The current through both resistors is the same. The current through R2 is smaller than through R1 The current through R2 is larger than through Ry Submit Answer Tries 0/2

Explanation / Answer

As V=I*R,

I=V/R ; or  I= V/(R1+R2)

There is a constant current I in the circuit.

The voltage drop across R1 is I*R1 and across R2 is I*R2. Since R2>R1, so I*R2>I*R1. So, the voltage drop across R1 is smaller than across R2.

As mentioned above, the current I through both resistors is same.
