Lesson: Chapter 19 — Current Electricity

19.7. Resistors in parallel 2 of 6

Question 2

In a parallel arrangement, what is the same for every branch?

The right answer is the one marked above.

The potential difference across each branch. Every branch is joined between the same two points, so every one has the same potential difference across it.

Series and parallel swap which quantity is shared. In series the current is the same everywhere; in parallel it is the voltage.
