Two resistors of resistances 2 Omega and...

Two resistors of resistances `2 Omega and 4 Omega` when connected to a battery will have :

A

same current flowing through them when connected in parallel

B

same current flowing through then when connected is series

C

same potential difference across them when connected is series

D

different potential difference across them when connected in parallel

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

In series combination of resistances same current flows through each resistor where as in parallel combination same voltage exist across each resistor. Thus, the two resistors of resistances `2 Omega` and `4 Omega` are connecting in series has same current flowing through it.
