Voltage Divider (Series Resistors) (V1 = V × R1/(R1+R2))
jee-mainjee-advancedneet-ug
V1 = V × R1/(R1+R2)
What each symbol means
| Symbol | What it stands for |
|---|---|
| V | Total voltage across series pair (V) |
| R_i | Series resistances (Ω) |
| V_1 | Drop across R1 (V) |
When to use this
Same current through series pair; ohmic; DC steady.
