Question

question 10 of 25
which resistors in the circuit must always have the same current?
a. a and b
b. a and d
c. c and d
d. b and c

Explanation:

Step1: Recall current - sharing rule

In a series - connected circuit, the current through each component is the same. Resistors in series have no branching points between them.

Step2: Analyze the circuit

Resistors C and D are in series. There is a single path for the current to flow through C and D without any branching in between them. Resistors A and B are in parallel, so they have the same voltage but different currents (in general).

Answer:

C. C and D
