Question 1

The voltage drop for each branch of a parallel circuit is ________.
◦ Equal
◦ Reduced by the resistance of loads in each branch
◦ Increased by the resistance of loads in each branch
◦ None of these

Question 2

Two bulbs are connected in parallel to a 12-volt battery. One bulb has a resistance of 6 ohms and the other bulb has a resistance of 2 ohms. Technician A says that only the 2-ohm bulb will light because all of the current will flow through the path with the least resistance and no current will flow through the 6-ohm bulb. Technician B says that the 6-ohm bulb will be dimmer than the 2-ohm bulb. Which technician is correct?
◦ Technician A only
◦ Technician B only
◦ Both technicians A and B
◦ Neither technician A nor B
