For items 9 & 10, refer to the diagram below: Two resistors are connected as shown below. Their resistance ratings are R1 = 30 and R2 = 120. resistor 1 resistor 2 9) Which resistor will have higher current that passes through it? * Neither of the two R1 R2 10) Assume that each resistor represents the resistance of a light bulb. What will happen to resistor 2 if resistor 1 gets busted? resistor 2 will still function with the same brightness as before. resistor 2 will still function and it will shine brighter. resistor 2 will still function but it will shine dimmer. resistor 2 will not function as well. l(a) <l(b) <1(c) O l(a) > 1(b) > 1(c) l(a)>l(b) <1(c) O 1(a) = 1(b) = 1(c) 11) Three resistors (a), (b) and (c) are connected in series. Their resistance can be compared as follows: R(a) < R(b) < R(c). How does the current passing through resistors (a), (b), and (c) compare to each other? I
