Question
Two resistors of resistance 2 Ω and 4 Ω when connected to a battery will have
Options
same current flowing through them when connected in parallel
same current flowing through them when connected in series
same potential difference across them when connected in series
different potential difference across them when connected in parallel
Solution
same current flowing through them when connected in series
Explanation -
When two resistors are connected in series with a battery then current passing through them is same.
