Q1:

The voltage read by the voltmeter will be:

A 24 V

B 12 V

C 6 V

D 4 V

ANS:B - 12 V

In parallel circuit combination the voltage is same and current flow different paths. That is current flow through each resistance is different [according to the value resistance]. Hence the total current for the circuit is I = I1 + I2 + I3.
