Three identical cells each have electromotive force (e.m.f.) E and negligible internal resistance. The cells are connected to three identical resistors, each of resistance R, as shown. [circuit diagram with three cells of e.m.f. E and three resistors of resistance R] What is the potential difference across one of the resistors?

1. A0
2. B\frac{E}{3}
3. C\frac{2E}{3}
