Electric circuits — practice question

Two resistors, having resistances $R_1$ and $R_2$, are connected as a potential divider. What is the relationship among $R_1$, $R_2$ and the potential differences $V_1$ and $V_2$?

  • A$R_1 \times R_2 = V_1 \times V_2$
  • B$R_1 \times V_1 = R_2 \times V_2$
  • C$\frac{R_1}{R_2} = V_1 \times V_2$
  • D$\frac{R_1}{R_2} = \frac{V_1}{V_2}$
