if R4 is the only resistor (the load), then the drop would be the same as the energy source
The 5 Ohm resistor will have more current passing through it than the 10 ohm resistor. Since the resistors are in parallel the Voltage across each resistor is the same. Power or the amount of heat in terms of the question can be derived from Power = Voltage * Current. Ohm's law tells us that the current flowing through a resistor is equal to the Voltage across the resistor divided by the resistance. The formula for power is then the Voltage * Voltage / Resistance. Since V^2 / 10 is smaller than V^2 / 5 we know that the 5 ohm resistor will always have more power dissipated than the 10 ohm resistor.
the potential difference across the single 4ohm resistor is 230volts.
It depends on the voltage applied across it. But the maximum current is limited by the power-rating of the resistor (power divided by the square of the voltage).
Ohm's Law Voltage = Current x Resistance
Ohms law is: V = I x R (voltage = current x resistance) ... therefore the larger the resistance the larger the voltage drop across that resistance.
The question is incomplete without the voltage across the resistor. For example: if V (Voltage across 500 ohm resistor) = 5 Volts, then, Current, I = 5/500 Ampere = 0.01 A.
What is the amount of current flowing through the resistor? Voltage drop is dependent on the current. Ohm x Amps = Voltage drop
120v
The correct question is what is the voltage drop across a resistor or the current flowing through the resistor using Ohm's Law where Voltage = Current x Resistance
The voltage must reduce by the same factor - that is Ohm's law.

V = (I) x (R) = 2 x 12 = 24 volts
If there's nothing else between the ends of the resistor and the power supply, then the voltage across the resistor is 24 volts, and the current through it is 2 amperes.
It depends on the voltage applied across it. But the maximum current is limited by the power-rating of the resistor (power divided by the square of the voltage).
Here are some practice questions based on Ohm's Law: If a resistor has a resistance of 10 ohms and a current of 2 amperes flowing through it, what is the voltage across the resistor? A circuit has a voltage of 12 volts applied across a resistor with a resistance of 4 ohms. What is the current flowing through the resistor? If a circuit has a current of 0.5 amperes flowing through a resistor with a resistance of 8 ohms, what is the voltage across the resistor? These questions will help you practice applying Ohm's Law to calculate voltage, current, and resistance in electrical circuits.
A resistor's resistance is measured in ohms. The higher the resistance the less current will flow with a constant voltage applied across the resistor. In terms of Ohm's Law Voltage = Current x Resistance.
