An infinite sequence of resistance is shown in the figure. The resultant resistance between A and B will be, when R1=1 $ \Omega$ and R2 = 2 $ \Omega$
In the circuit given, find the currents ${I }, I_1$ and $I_2$ in the circuit.
Two unequal resistors are connected in series across a battery. Then the
A potential divider circuit is shown in figure. The output voltage V0 is :

When the current in the circuit shown in the figure attains a steady value, then:
Series Grouping of resistance
In this case , Potential drop is different across each resistor and Current is the same
