The circuit below shows three resistors in series. R3 > R2 > R1. The resistors are all made of the same wire with the same diameter but have different lengths. Rank the magnitudes of the electric fields in the resistors from least to greatest.
 
   


   
  a.
  E3 < E2 < E1.
   
  b.
  E2 < E1 = E3.
   
  c.
  E1 = E2 = E3.
   
  d.
  E1 = E3 < E2.
   
  e.
  E1 < E2 < E3.

Question 2

  a.
  E3 < E2 < E1.
   
  b.
  E2 < E1 = E3.
   
  c.
  E1 = E2 = E3.
   
  d.
  E1 = E3 < E2.
   
  e.
  E1 < E2 < E3.
