Question 13

A 4.0 Ω resistor is connected in parallel with an 8.0 Ω resistor.

There is a constant potential difference across the parallel combination.

Which statement about current and potential difference for the two resistors is correct?

A

The potential difference is greater across the 4.0 Ω4.0\ \Omega4.0 Ω resistor.

B

The potential difference is greater across the 8.0 Ω8.0\ \Omega8.0 Ω resistor.

C

The current is greater in the 4.0 Ω4.0\ \Omega4.0 Ω resistor.

D

The current is greater in the 8.0 Ω8.0\ \Omega8.0 Ω resistor.
