Which of the following is true for a parallel circuit?

The current is the same across all resistors in the circuit.

The voltage is the same across all resistors in the circuit.

As more resistors are added, the current will decrease.

The sum of the voltage drops will equal the total voltage.

I think it's C.

I think the answer is B

raffle_snaffle · Answer

The reason it's not answer C is because current want to flow through the path with least resistance and the resistance in a parallel circuit is cut in half. Now if it was a series circuit choice C would be correct.

welshfella · Answer

Yes As more resistors are added  the current increases.
