Question

A 164-Ω resistor and a 190-Ω resistor are both connected in parallel across a power supply. If the potential drop across the 164-Ω resistor is 17 V, what is the exact potential drop (in V) across the 190-Ω resistor? Do not include units with your answer.

Answer 1

Since the potential in parallel conmection and current in series connectiin remain same.

Here the two resisitors are connected in parallel and the potential across164 ohm resistor is 17 V.

So potential across190 ohm resistor will also be 17 V.

Answer = 17 V
