In a parallel circuit, the voltage remains the _.
Correct answer: A. Same
- A. Same
- B. Different
- C. Both of them
- D. None of them
Explanation
In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each branch of the circuit is the same as the voltage across the voltage source. This is because each branch is connected directly across the voltage source, allowing the voltage to be the same for all branches. Therefore, the voltage remains the same in a parallel circuit.

About Current Electricity
Steady current relates charge flow to potential difference, resistance and resistivity, including how temperature changes a conductor's resistance. Sources with internal resistance have terminal voltage below their emf when delivering current, and maximum power output occurs under a specific load condition rather than at zero resistance.
