Which ONE of the circuits below can be used to measure the current in conductor X and the potential difference across its ends?

• 
• 
• 
• 

Ampere second could be the unit of

• power

• energy

• conductance

• charge

A circuit contains two unequal resistances in parallel; therefore:

• The current is the same in both.

• A larger current flows in the larger resistor

• The potential difference across each resistor is the same

• The smaller resistance has a smaller current flowing through it

• 10 watts

• 30 watts

• 90 watts

• 270 watts
