A B w R2 R E The circuit shown contains two resistors, an ideal battery, and a switch. The resistance of resistor R, is less than the resistance of resistor Rz. a. Indicate whether the current through resistor R, when the switch is open is greater than, less than, or equal to the current through resistorR, when the switch is closed. Greater than Less than Equal to Briefly explain how you arrived at your answer. b. Closing the switch creates a short circuit. Indicate whether the absolute value of the potential difference between points A and B when the switch is open is greater than, less than, or equal to the absolute value of the potential difference when the switch is closed. Greater than Less than Equal to Explain your reasoning in a clear, coherent paragraph-length explanation that may also contain equations and/or drawings. Address the conditions before and after the switch is closed.
