Question

How does the potential difference across parallel circuit compare with potential difference across individual resistors in parallel circuit?

Short Answer

Solution

All parallel resistors are connected between the same two common points, so the potential difference is the same across each resistor and is equal to the potential difference across the whole parallel combination: $$V = V_1 = V_2 = V_3$$.
