When the current through each resistor is the same.

(B) Resistors are said to be connected in series when they are joined end-to-end such that the same amount of electric current flows through each resistor.In a series circuit,there is only one path for the current to flow,which ensures that the current remains constant throughout the circuit.

The table given below provides the resistivity of three samples in $\Omega \cdot m$:
Sample Resistivity $(\Omega \cdot m)$
$A$ $1.6 \times 10^{-8}$
$B$ $7.5 \times 10^{17}$
$C$ $44 \times 10^{-6}$

$(a)$ Which of them is a good conductor? Which is an insulator? Why?
$(b)$ $A$ wire of resistance $4 \ \Omega$ is folded on itself to double its thickness. Calculate the new resistance of the wire.
