Four resistors, each of resistance R, are connected in series with a cell of e.m.f. E. [circuit diagram: four resistors labelled R in series with a cell labelled E] From left to right, what is the current in each of the resistors?

1. A\frac{E}{4R} \quad \frac{E}{4R} \quad \frac{E}{4R} \quad \frac{E}{4R}
2. B\frac{E}{4R} \quad \frac{E}{3R} \quad \frac{E}{2R} \quad \frac{E}{R}
3. C\frac{E}{R} \quad \frac{E}{2R} \quad \frac{E}{3R} \quad \frac{E}{4R}
4. D\frac{E}{R} \quad \frac{E}{R} \quad \frac{E}{R} \quad \frac{E}{R}
