Physics-Resistance & Resistivity

NEET Physics Resistance & Resistivity MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Easy-Class 12

Which of the following statements about electric circuits is correct?

A

The total current flowing into a junction equals the total current flowing out.

B

Electric potential changes must always sum to a positive value in a closed loop.

C

Potential difference is independent of the resistance in the circuit.

D

When charges are not continuously replenished, the current will continue indefinitely.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The first option is correct as it aligns with the principle that the total current at a junction is conserved, meaning it must equal the total current flowing out. This is elaborated in the context of steady currents where charge accumulation does not occur.
