If you connect the circuit as shown in Fig. 19.1 in the Laboratory Guide with either resistor in place, but one fuse is removed from the circuit, this represents a circuit with a burned-out fuse. What is the voltage across the resistor? Explain your answer. V = ___________

Fill in the blank(s) with correct word


The voltage across the resistor is zero. Because no current is flowing through the
resistor and one conducting path to the voltage source is open, the voltage across the
resistor will be zero.
