The value of are is zero no voltage drop then same we flow in circuit.

If the resistors are open then how can we measure voltage across R3?

Ambika prasad said:   8 years ago
We know in series,

V=V1+V2+V3+V4+V5
=>6=0+0+V3+0+0
=>V3=6v.

V = IR.
R = V/I,
V = I*V/I.
V = V=6V.

It is the correct answer.

Voltage is wast in resistor. So the measuring value is Zero.

Kondiba gaike said:   1 decade ago
I known given voltage are same in all resistors i.e. 6v.

Gurmangat said:   1 decade ago
Yes the net voltage is on the R3.

Dheeraj said:   1 decade ago
All right series same R3 is same.

Swati said:   8 years ago
Yes, you are correct @Abdul.
