Question 15
Easy

Two cylindrical wires XXX and YYY of equal length are made of the same material. The diameter of XXX is greater than that of YYY. XXX and YYY are connected in parallel, and this combination is connected to a power supply. A schematic diagram showing two horizontal cylindrical wires, X and Y, connected in parallel. Wire X has a visibly larger diameter than wire Y, but both have the same length. Their left ends are connected together by a conducting wire, and their right ends are similarly connected together. These common junctions are connected to a power supply. Which two quantities are the same for XXX and YYY?

current and resistivity

resistivity and potential difference across each wire

resistance and potential difference across each wire
