Answer: The potential difference across both the resistors is the same.
Explanation :
Given that, two resistors 3 -ohm and 6 ohms are connected in parallel across a 9-volt battery. The equivalent resistance, in this case, is given by :
[tex]\dfrac{1}{R_{eq}}=\dfrac{1}{R_1}+\dfrac{1}{R_2}[/tex]
In parallel combination, the current across each resistor divides and the potential difference remains the same.
So, the correct statement is (1) "The potential difference across the 6-ohm resistor is the same as the potential difference across the 3-ohm resistor."
The statement best compares the potential difference across each resistor will be 1.
What is resistance?
Resistance is a type of opposition force due to which the flow of current is reduced in the material or wire. Resistance is the enemy of the flow of current.
The equivalent resistance is given by;
[tex]\frac{1}{R_{eq}} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2}[/tex]
When two resistors are connected in parallel, the current across each resistor splits while the potential difference stays constant.
The potential difference across the 6-ohmresistor is the same as the potential difference across the 3-ohm resistor.
Hence the statement best compares the potential difference across each resistor will be 1.
