Transcription: In this lesson we will discuss voltage division in a series circuit. In the circuit shown, the following voltages can be determined. V1 is equal to I times R1. V2 is equal to I times R2. And V3 is equal to I times R3. Therefore, I is equal to V1 divided by R1, which is equal to V2 divided by R2 and V3 divided by R3. From V1 divided by R1 equals V2 divided by R2 and V2 divided by R2 equals V3 divided by R3, we derive the following relationships shown. V1 equals V2 times R1 divided by R2. V2 also equals V1 times R2 divided by R1 and V3 equals V2 times R3 divided by R2. The voltage drops are prop ...
