Resistors in series
Storyboard 
When several resistors are connected in series, the current is the same in all resistors due to the conservation of loads. Therefore, in each resistance a potential drop equal to the electrical resistance multiplied by the current is experienced and whose sum must be the total potential difference. Therefore, the total resistance of a series of resistors is equal to the sum of these.

In the case of two resistors connected in series, the resistance in Series ($R_s$) is equal to the sum of the resistance 1 ($R_1$) and the resistance 2 ($R_2$). This relationship is expressed as:
By the principle of energy conservation, the potential difference ($\Delta\varphi$) is equal to the sum of the difference of potential 1 ($\Delta\varphi_1$) and the difference of potential 2 ($\Delta\varphi_2$). This can be expressed through the following relationship:
Traditional Ohm's law establishes a relationship between the potential difference ($\Delta\varphi$) and the current ($I$) through the resistance ($R$), using the following expression:
