Why do all the resistances in a parallel connection receive the same voltage?

  1. Because the voltage is the same for all points on a node. When resistors are connected in parallel, they all share the same nodes, therefore they will all have the same voltage across them.


  2. Because it is resistance that causes the voltage to drop from one point in the circuit to the next, but there is no resistance between one parallel connection and the next one.
