A 10-volt battery is connected to a circuit with two resistors, R1 and R2, in parallel. If R1 is greater than R2, what does Kirchhoff's loop rule indicate about the voltage drops across the resistors?

The voltage drops across both R1 and R2 will be 5 V each.

The voltage drops across both R1 and R2 will be 10 V each.

The voltage drop across R1 will be less than the voltage drop across R2.***

The voltage drop across R1 will be greater than the voltage drop across R2.
