Question

Explain the correct GCSE Physics rule for State that potential difference across each branch of a parallel circuit is an equal value in Parallel circuits.

Answer

State that potential difference across each branch of a parallel circuit is an equal value must be applied only to the circuit, component or quantity named in the question.

Explanation

This answer is creditworthy because it keeps the Parallel circuits rule precise and avoids transferring a rule from a different electricity context.

Common mistake
