You are given a 9-V battery, some wire, a 3-ohm resistor, and a 6-ohm resistor.

(a) If you make a series circuit using each of these items, how will the current in the 3-ohm resistor compare to the current in the 6-ohm resistor?

(b) If you make a series circuit using each of these items, how will the voltage drop across the 3-ohm resistor compare to the voltage drop across the 6-ohm resistor?

(c) If you make a parallel circuit with the 3-ohm resistor and the 6-ohm resistor both in parallel across the 9-V battery, how will the current in the 3-ohm resistor compare to the current in the 6-ohm resistor?

(d) If you make a parallel circuit with the 3-ohm resistor and the 6-ohm resistor both in parallel across the 9-V battery, how will the voltage drop across the 3-ohm resistor compare to the voltage drop across the 6-ohm resistor?

(e) For which circuit (the series case or the parallel case) will the current through the 3-ohm resistor be larger?
