1.) Consider the combination circuit in the diagram below. Use the diagram to answer the
following questions. (Assume that the voltage drops in the wires themselves in negligibly
small.) (30pts)

a. The electric potential difference (voltage drop) between points B and C is greater
than the electric potential difference (voltage drop) between points J and K.
b. The electric potential difference (voltage drop) between points B and K greater
than the electric potential difference (voltage drop) between points D and I.
c. The electric potential difference (voltage drop) between points E and F equal to
the electric potential difference (voltage drop) between points G and H.
d. The electric potential difference (voltage drop) between points E and F equal to
the electric potential difference (voltage drop) between points D and I.
e. The electric potential difference (voltage drop) between points J and K is greater
than the electric potential difference (voltage drop) between points D and I.
f. The electric potential difference between points L and A is equal to the electric
potential difference (voltage drop) between points B and K.
