Question

explain all steps and why

If two resistors R1 and R2(R2 > R1) are connected in parallel as shown in the figure below, which of the following must be true? hi each case justify your answer. I1 =I2 I3=I4 The current is greater in R1 than in R2. The rate of electrical energy consumption is the same for both resistors. The rate of electrical energy consumption is greater in R2 than in R1. Vcd=vef=vab Point c is at higher potential than point d. Point f is at higher potential than point e. Point c is at higher potential than point e.

Explanation / Answer

a)false because as potential difference across R1 and R2 should be same I1>I2

b)true. Inward current = outward current

c)true explained in part(a)

d)false Electrical consumption is VI and since V is same directly proportional to I which gives electrical consumption on R1 > R2

e)false as explaineed above

f)true. since there is no additional resistance to cause potential drop in between

g)true since current flow sfrom higher to lowerpotential

h)false same reason as explained above

i)false eqipotential points
