question 18 of 25
which resistors in the circuit must always have the same current?

a. a and b
b. b and c
c. a and d
d. c and d

Explanation:

In a series - connected circuit, the current through each component is the same. Resistors \(C\) and \(D\) are in series. For resistors in parallel (like \(A\) and \(B\)), the voltage across them is the same but the current can be different (\(I=\frac{V}{R}\), if \(R\) is different, \(I\) is different). Resistors \(A\) and \(D\) are neither in series nor in parallel. Resistors \(B\) and \(C\) are also not in series.

Answer:

D. C and D
