Two resistors are connected in parallel to a 12 V battery. The potential difference across one of the resistors is 12 v . Calculate the potential difference across the other resistor

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

We have to take into account that the potential difference is equal to the voltage, and this is measured between two points as the resistors are connected in parallel to the voltage source, the resistors will have the same voltage.

For ease, we will take the attached image of resistors connected in parallel.

As both resistors at their ends share the A & B connection points, these are at a voltage of 12V
