Multiple choice

If a circuit containing two unequal resistors is connected in parallel then _____________.

  1. the voltage is same across both the resistors

  2. the current is same and voltage is different in the resistance having more value

  3. the current is same in both resistors

  4. the current is flow less in both resistors

  5. the voltage drops are different across both the resistors

A Correct answer
Explanation

If one of the parallel resistors shorted out, then the voltage across all of them would be zero (short) volts. Since,  the voltage across the other resistors is zero, the current would also be zero.
