Solution:
- Series Circuit: In a series circuit, the current is the same through all components. Therefore, the 0.25 A current is the same through both resistors.
- Ohm's Law: We can use Ohm's Law (V = IR) to calculate the resistance of each resistor.
- Resistor 1: R1 = V / I = 1.5 V / 0.25 A = 6 Ω
- Resistor 2: R2 = V / I = 1.5 V / 0.25 A = 6 Ω
Answer: Each resistor has a value of 6 Ω.
