A student using the same two resistors, ammeter, voltmeter and battery, sets up two circuits A and B connecting the two resistors first in series and then in parallel.
If the ammeter and voltmeter readings in the two cases be I
1, I
2 and V
1, V
2 respectively he is likely to observe that :
(1) I
1 = I
2 but V
1 ≠ V
2
(2) I
1 < I
2 but V
1 = V
2
(3) I
1 > I
2 but V
1 = V
2
(4) I
1 = I
2 and V
1 = V
2
